Trail Overview

First and foremost, I recommend downloading offline maps prior to any excursion however especially for this area. There is no cell service for about 5 miles out in any direction near this assortment of trails. Overall its a fairly easy trail, some narrow parts that will give you some pin-striping and be careful of washouts after a rain. This trail is not doable in a stock vehicle, Id recommend a lift and some good tires at least. Trail composition is mainly dirt, there are a few rocky parts and some off camber spots. Some small water crossings if there was a recent rain. Be sure to stop and check out all of the historical cemeteries that are up there but please be respectful and beware there is private land surrounding the areas. The end of the trail does ride alongside an abandoned house however the road is public.

Came out Saturday after basically 3 days of rain. A bit over half way down the trail there is a very large tree down across the trail. Even with a proper sized chainsaw it will not be a fast clearing. Otherwise, lots of mud, but luckily a hard bottom trail. Trouble free in a 5th gen 4Runner. Stock height and 32's

Rocks, ruts, and relics. Pushed the Jeeps through some steep climbs and muddy ruts before stopping by a cool backwoods cemetery. Great day on the trail.

This trail was really easy. There were a few people on the rail with sxs, atv, and motor cross. It is a tight trail to move over to let folks pass
