Did the 5.9 mile highlighted segment with the family for a trail lunch at Batona Camp ground at the sount entrance of the trail. Followed it up to 533 and came home. Loose sand in some areas caused my Wrangler Rubicon to slip a little bit but not terribly in 4H with my swaybar disconnected. Probably honestly could just been in 2H, but for comfort with the family switched down to 4L, which certainly made the drive smoother over all and more of a stroll in the park. Some areas were narrow but plenty of pull offs to let people pass if needed. Tighter corners definitely had looser sand. We agreed was a fun beautiful trail we would drive again.

Easy trail with the only real "obstacle" being the sugar sand. Fun to drive with a little speed.
