Trail Overview

This trail is mostly dirt with some rocks. There are a lot of low spots, typically with 6-12" of water. All of the water holes have rock bottoms. The first section of the road is Leah, also for use by motorized vehicles, but when you reach the 3x4 hog panel fence, you have to hike the rest of the way. Overnight camping is legal, but please clean up your trash. There is one washed-out, low-water bridge that can be difficult without 4x4 but can be navigated carefully in stock vehicles.

Fun little trail easily doable by any 4x4 with some clearance. Some mud puddles with solid bottoms, one obstacle where you might scrape a bumper but not bad at all. Last quarter of the trail can be tight for longer vehicles. Nice view from the top!

Very very narrow throughout majority of trail. With recent washouts in a couple of spots a vehicle with a good approach/ departure angle is recommended.
