Two water crossings are encountered along the route, with the initial crossing potentially requiring a high-clearance vehicle depending on conditions. Drivers should assess water levels before attempting the crossing. Because the road is a single lane with limited passing opportunities, use caution when meeting oncoming traffic.

Trail is in fantastic condition and the water crossings are only a few inches deep. This isn't a 3, it's a 1. 4WD not even needed once. Easy drive in, easy drive out. Gravel most of the way. Great little trail to warm up for the day!
