Trail Overview
The route takes you from the Dayton area to Sunrise Pass. The canyon can be challenging with dirt, sand, and rock crawling sections. There is a creek that has seasonal water flow but does not make the trail undoable for high-clearance vehicles. It has cottonwood trees, pinon pine trees, and other vegetation that has overgrown the trail in spots. Except for brush scrapes on your vehicle. Snow in the winter can make the trail difficult.

The trail runs in the bottom of a canyon crossing a creek numerous times. Vegetation can be encroaching on the trail, expect brush scraping on vehicles. There are rock crawling sections. One location towards the Sunrise Pass end of the trail is very off-camber. Full-size vehicles or vehicles with a high center of gravity are not recommended.
