Trail Overview

This is a sand road with mixed use of farming, logging, hunt clubs, and the occasional residence. The sand surface ranges from soft and deep, (threatening to bog one down), to a clay mix, hard packed when dry and slippery as an eel when rained soaked. Along the way, you will find a couple of beaver ponds, views of rolling pasture land, and plenty of wildflowers, berries to pick, and wildlife to see.

Difficulty

In dry and dusty conditions the sand is deep and soft and could bog your vehicle. In wet conditions, the sand will pack up nice and firm but the areas that were rock hard when dry are now slick as grease because of the white kaolin clay.
