Trail Overview

This route is a rocky trail that wraps around the side of the mountain. Provides a very scenic trail in winter when leaves are off the trees. The trail can become overgrown in the summer months and can become a tight trail. This is a narrow one-line road. Airing down will make this trail a little easier but it is a rough road because of the baseball size rocks all over the trail. Also, this can become very muddy at certain times of the year.

Trail has recently been entropy re-graded with extensive reconstruction work. New corrugated drain tiles installed, and ditches dug for erosion diversion. Very pleasant trail. No more large baseball sized rocks or even potholes on the trail anymore.

Looks like the road has been recently maintained. Although narrow at some points, no airing down or 4WD was needed. I could still see the pink flags from when they laid new gravel.

Gate was closed. No info about when it will reopen. Had to turn around and drive all the way back and around.

Trail is open, but a little technical in one section due to ruts and mud. Otherwise fine.

Trail to get there was open. Got to where the actual trail was and the gate was closed. I don’t know when it will reopen.

Trail was dry. A few water features, but nothing big. When the trail is dry it is pretty easy - I would rate it as a green trail, as the few obstacles were not very challenging.
