Trail Overview
BLM Road #8334 is not challenging in itself, but presents great views. There are many spurs with plenty of space for camping. Each spur leads to a great view of the surrounding mountains, valleys, and towns. Wild flowers are in full bloom during the spring. The road that travels west along the ridge leads to a great view of Basalt.

Difficulty
The road surface is mostly softball-sized rocks. The north side of the ridge is slightly overgrown and will pinstripe your vehicle. 12-18" ruts may be present if the trail was recently wet. 15 degree grades are frequent.
