Trail Overview

This trail is fairly well maintained with gravel over hard-packed dirt. Some sections are narrow with pull-off areas, while others are wide enough for two vehicles to pass. A single water crossing has a warning sign advising caution during heavy rain and high water. Drivers should watch for narrow stretches with blind curves, and several short spur trails provide access to the creek.

The road was open all the way from 181 to Table rock road. Watch for other traffic. I only met two but they can sometimes be running pretty fast.

Gate is open, pretty skinny gravel road, watch for traffic. Beautiful locations around the creek. Go for it.
