Difficulty

This trail is mostly an easy Sunday drive. However, from mile 4.6 to 7.8 (traveling southeast to northwest) the trail narrows. Portions of the trail are on native sandy material with winter-time ruts and a few deeper obstacles up to 18 inches. After passing Quartz Creek, the road turns into a shelf road with loose rock and frequent rock falls, possibly making the road impassible at times or impassable to larger vehicles. On the day of the trail recording, a large rock made passing unavailable to full-width vehicles. Therefore, this trail receives a rating of 3.
