Trail Overview

The trail is a fairly well-maintained fire service road surfaced with gravel, which does not require a 4x4 vehicle to navigate. However, cell phone reception (Verizon) is not available while on the trail. There are several spots for dispersed camping located along the trail. During our visit, there were prescribed burns being conducted in the area.https://www.youtube.com/@gladventures/videos

Mainly a gravel road. We came across a large tree across the road about half way across the ridge but cleared a lane through it with a chainsaw.

Gravel surface was in rather good condition. Had rained the night before and when it rains the edges and pullouts get real soft. Did not run into any washouts or any other obstacles to speak of. Was a beautiful sunday drive!

No issues along the way. The trail has been recently widened in spots due to Forest Service work to improve the fire break. The route offers a great first-opportunity for those interested in off-roading.

Really underrated trail with good views of Appalachia.
