Trail Overview

This is an offroad paradise for people who want to enjoy nature but don't have built rigs. The trail will give you off-camber ruts through mudholes as well as rocky hill climbs with great views of the outskirts of the Shawnee State Forest. Do not attempt this in a 2WD vehicle or a truck that does not have at least 33-inch tires and 4-low. the trail can be slick and muddy if it has rained in the days before your adventure. This is a great trail for some relaxing off-road fun; it is just sketchy enough to be fun but not over-the-top hard.

This trail is a nice easy scenic drive with small rocks and exposed root systems. Doable in most 4wd vehicle. This track does narrow at time so travel slowly. There are lots of different routes all along the trail.

Just as described, stock OR tacoma handled ever part without issue. Recent rainfall caused muddier than usual conditions. Deep ruts. Skid plate definitely came in handy with this one.
