Trail Overview
This trail offers a little bit of everything. It starts as a dirt/gravel road with some washouts and a couple of steep climbs. You will pass through a sand pit that can be quite soft in the summertime. After the sand, there are approximately 2 miles of rock garden. If you end up joining Jumbo Grade at the summit, you can take it to Virginia City or down to Washoe Valley. A stock 4x4 can make it if it has decent ground clearance. It can be quite narrow in spots, so if you do not want brush scratches, it could be quite a challenge. There are beautiful mountain views in all directions. This trail is open year-round, but the upper portions could be impassable in the winter.
