Trail Overview

Tight Quarters Trail is a short spur trail off FS 5314. Just because it's short doesn't mean it should be overlooked. It is much harder than all other trails in the area. Several spots are off-camber and have large tree roots that must be crossed. One of the deepest mud holes has a bypass. The bypass is very tight and difficult to traverse in a full-size vehicle, hence the name of the trail.

Difficulty

On the east end of the trail there is a difficult hill with a tree root that may cause issues for stock ride height vehicles. Also a deep mud pit exceeding a foot deep with recent rainfall. There is a bypass, however that itself can be difficult to due mud and width narrowed by trees. It may not be accessible with full sized vehicles.

This trail is tight. Expect some good pin stripes and a driver who can navigate his/ her way around some low lying branches is helpful. Overall not difficult, but there are some off camber areas and some rooted areas that may be difficult for stock rigs. You’re really off the grid here. GPS is not great, but the scenery is worth the effort. I would go there again. Mud holes were very minimal, but it was dry. I expect this would be more challenging with a lot of rain or in the winter.

Trail appeared to be in good shape, compared to reading previous reviews from the past. There’s a few shallow muddy areas that did not slow us down. The larger mud holes have bypasses but we didn’t have to use them. This is a fun trail, especially for beginners like us.
