Trail Overview

Seemingly leave Idaho and transport yourself into the terrain you would find in the Western Desert. Grey rock, grey sand, Juniper trees, and even cacti welcome you on this fun short adventure. Pick your adventure if you'd rather take the more difficult direction from south to north, or the easier, quicker direction from the north, you can not go wrong. If you decide to drive south to north, expect loose rock and slow climbing up the gulch.
