Trail Overview

This is a nice wide trail that winds its way through part of the Cadillac Forest from Evert to Sunrise Lake. It can be run in either direction north or south. There is some mud section that could require four-wheel drive when wet. There are also a few hill sections that could be slick when wet. The trail takes about an hour to complete. There are plenty of attached trails to explore as well.

Difficulty

Four-wheel drive with decent ground clearance will be required as some of the mud holes and rutted areas could be a foot deep or more. Be aware that the surrounding trails in this area can be much more difficult with deep mud holes, very tight trails, steep hills, and rocks.

Awsome trail. I started from the south driving north. The first half is very eazy. Nice wide trail made up of dirt and sand. The 1st half I would rate a 1. The 2nd half bcomes more rough. With ruts, water holes, nothing to deep, maybe 6”. Still fairly wide. I had a lot of fun on this one.
