Trail Overview

The trail is easy for the most part. There is one rutted spot at the beginning that is deep and would be difficult for most SUVs. Past that point, there are a few muddy spots and the bushes are close to the trail, causing scratches to your vehicle.

Narrow trail that definitely inflicts scratches. Some low mountain run off water crossing. No problems for the Xterra 4x4. Beautiful wildflowers in early summer.

Gate was open. Nice drive up to a beautiful lake with a couple washed out sections and a few mud holes. The mud wasn’t a problem. Even though one section was 10-12” deep it had a hard, rocky bottom. With sway bars disconnected I don’t think we lifted a tire on the washouts. READ: although an easy trail to drive it is very narrow and you will get pinstripes. The only other vehicle we saw was a Jeep and it was pushing brush on both sides just like we were.
