Trail Overview

This is a relatively easy and enjoyable drive with excellent views. This entire area has a bunch of great trails and is perfect for OHVs. Make a trip of it with friends and family by camping and visiting the town of Meeker.

Difficulty

Easy. Wide dirt road with some intermittent bumpy sections. Four-wheel drive helpful but not necessary when road is dry. Early season conditions may be muddy. Unlicensed vehicles can find a wide range of difficulty on side trails.

Road closed sign, South Entrance of Sleepy Cat (off of County 8). Speculation is due to the nearby Crosho Fire, but there is a large burn scar that runs along County Road 8 as you approach the trailhead from Meeker, so it coul be a safety issue as well.
