Trail Overview

This trail begins where it meets Yellow 71, requiring careful navigation around tree roots early on to prevent body damage. Primarily composed of mud, maintaining traction is challenging, and drivers may slide where the mud leads. The trail features tight corners, rocky ledges, and rock obstacles up to three feet tall. It ends at the top of a rocky, slick hill climb where it joins with Yellow 64. This trail is better suited to go down than go up.

Difficulty

This trail presents a high level of difficulty due to its thick, sticky mud that clings heavily to your vehicle and boots, making traction a major challenge. The mud is slick and greasy under the tires, causing slipping and loss of control. Tight corners and rocky ledges require careful maneuvering, and rock obstacles up to three feet tall demand skill and clearance. Navigating around exposed tree roots near the start is necessary to avoid damage. The trail culminates in a steep, slick, rocky hill climb, adding to the overall challenge.
