Trail Overview

This is a forest trail that takes you the fun way to Parole Dam. There's a good downhill rocky section (tougher going back up)-there is a bypass, but the extra credit lines require good ground clearance. Shortly after exiting the trail, you will arrive at the Parole Dam area with opportunities for some hard climbs and obstacles.

Great trail with a surprising mud pit. It’s been so dry out. Lots of clay mud, this stuff sticks to everything so be sure to wash of before you get home or you’ll have a red driveway. Plenty of trails with heavy wash out and rocks that bring a challenge. Few are very steep that’ll test your skill and ride. Nice trail here that’s used for power line maintained that allows for some speeds.

The trail was great but it’s a bit tight for a full size truck. Didn’t get through all the section due to me not having a lift and branches grown onto the trail too tight for a full sized. Several jeeps were going through just fine though.
