Trail Overview

At the beginning of the trail, there is a small bridge. Halfway into the trail, there is a small stream that makes a small drop down that can catch you off guard. After the small stream, there is a 35-degree incline that can be very difficult when the ground is muddy. This trail also has beautiful side walls that go up to 18 feet at some parts.

Difficulty

4WD is needed if the trail is muddy. 2WD can make it through the trail if it's dry. When snowy, the trail is just as hard, if not harder.

A few ruts at the base of the hill but otherwise smooth. Small stream over the road just before the bridge from the previous night’s rain

Deep ruts from the heavy rain. Part of the hollow has given way and is blocking part of the road. There’s also a puddle at the bottom of the hill that’s a bit deeper than it looks.

pretty simple road. trail lasts about 30 seconds if you are just normal driving. road was dry, I can see this being bad it wet or snow. previously I read the trail has a 30 degree incline/decline. jeep said 16 degree at its steepest point. if it's dry, load the minivan up, pretty simple.

Scenic for about a 1/4 mile otherwise just a dirt road. I could drive it in my Camry. If it was muddy it'd be a bit of a challenge.

Really steep with soft dirt that can quickly turn to mud. Try not to spin your tires so that you can avoid filling your tread. Narrow bridge along path with a sharp-ish drop at the end. Some ruts present, but nothing too deep, at least when I went.
