Smooth and dusty on lower elevation. As you climb it gets more rough and may require 4WD. My buddy was fine in 2WD in a pretty stock Silverado. Some bends are a little rocky and steep. Overall no issues and great trail with awesome views!

No obstacles. Several hairpin blind corners otherwise very easy trail. Little bit of washboarding at the base of the trail. View up top is amazing. If your afraid of heights, this might not be for you.
