Difficulty

The road is easy going, but does feature two small feeder creek crossings, that in the event of heavy rain could have a small amount of water in them, there is also a few small water collection spots, and the main hill climbs show signs of erosion rutting that could become worse between maintenances if the season was very rain filled.
