Trail Overview
Conners Hole/Log Jam is an iconic off-road trail on Drummond Island, Michigan, perfect for intermediate drivers seeking classic northern woods terrain and a memorable water crossing. Stretching approximately 2.5 miles with very minimal elevation change, this trail offers a scenic route through dense forest, connecting drivers to the South Glenn Cove Road area. The path features a solid rock bottom that provides reliable traction, though conditions can vary significantly depending on the season. Water levels at the main crossing can become exceptionally deep after a long winter thaw, making a cautious approach and accurate depth assessment essential.
High-clearance 4x4 vehicles, ATVs, or side-by-sides are ideal for handling the uneven rocky surfaces and water obstacles along this route. The signature water obstacle, Conners Hole, serves as an exciting highlight and a great spot for trailside photos or a lunch break once successfully crossed. Due to extreme water fluctuations in the spring, the best times to ride are mid-summer through autumn when trail conditions are more predictable. Connecting this trail with adjacent routes allows for a full day of exploring Drummond Island's renowned off-road network before returning to town.
