Trail Overview

Powerline Road connects Pryor Mountain Road to Railroad Grade Road. Part of this road lies on BLM land and part of it lies on Custer National Forest Land. The section that is on BLM land is well-maintained and very easy. Once you get to the Custer National Forest section, it is no longer maintained. There are about three or four rock gardens to pass over, rutted sections, and several steeper climbs. The climb farthest east is very rutted and steep and will challenge most low-clearance vehicles.
