Pistol Creek

Solo ride in a JT Willy’s with stock wheel/tires and a 2” lift. I went in from the southeast side. Started off as a rutted dirt trail that probably gets pretty slippery when it’s wet. I marked the end of the rutted section in a pic. Traveling north from there it becomes smooth gravel and some paved roads. Coming back southwest counter-clockwise I marked where the offroad part starts again. Lots of tadpole eggs in the first puddle, be mindful. From here on it was mostly fording down the creek with a few parts of trail running next to it at blockages or deep parts. Drug my diff through the mud in some parts. All pretty manageable with good tire placement but the last two miles got more difficult. About a mile from the end there was a long deep puddle with a big hump in the middle on a steep hill side with no bypass. I got stuck here, in the mud then on the frame, but was able to winch myself out. The report before me refers to this hole as the 1st obstacle. No other issues. Bring your muck boots though

the first major obstacle on the trail has gotten deeper. the first drop in has become a ledge and the hump between the two holes is substantial. several jeeps had to be pulled over it. if the conditions are dry you can maneuver around ok. if it's wet you will slide into the middle of both holes.

open on the western section of the loop. we did not do the entire trail.

Several large trees down in the creek that blocked the route.
