Trail Overview

This two-track trail starts off easy but turns rocky and mildly steep as it goes on. If you can find it, there is an old Copper mine entrance where Owl Creek flows out of the Copper Falls Mine. The trail is narrow and may cause some unwanted scratches on wider vehicles.

Difficulty

Trail is mostly sand and rock with a solid bottom, water holes can be deep at times but easily passable. The rocky climb near the return to Eagle Harbor Rd can be hard for inexperienced drivers.

Status Reports

Fun trail but short. No pinstriping and incline was not overly challenging nir did it require much clearance. Stayed in 4high and didn’t air down although it would have been much smoother of a ride.

Trail starts wide and easy, narrows into very steep climbs, large rock to traverse near the top. Did it in 2wd though.

Short and easy little run. No 4x4 needed.
