Trail Overview

This Jeep trail is named after the difficult obstacle at the bottom of the climb up from the Middle Fork of Swan River to Georgia Pass and Glacier Ridge. The obstacle is about 150 yards of different-sized rocks in loose dirt up a steep climb. It is difficult when dry and extremely difficult when wet. There is a somewhat easier bypass.

Tree on the less technical fork was still there. The only way to complete is to travel up or down the very steep rocky fork. We approached from the south and tried the left fork but it was blocked and not much space to turn around. Was able to complete trail by going down rocky fork

Tree obstruction removed. First hill from north side getting real technical with rocks, I’d give it a 6 rating and the rest of the trail a 3 to 4

Normal
This trail is called Glacier Ridge Road, not SOB Hill. The "somewhat easier bypass" is blocked by downed trees. The normal route is open, and as difficult as expected.
