Trail Overview

About 100 yards into the trail, there is a decent hill climb with some decent-size rocks. High clearance is nice to have. However, stock rigs with the right tire placement will be just fine. Most of the trail is a nice trail with some overlooks in the winter. Once the leaves are on the trees, it becomes hard to see the beautiful views, but they are still there. There is one more sizable rock climb about halfway down the trail. Take your time and it will be no problem.

Difficulty

There's a gate keeper at the beginning of the trail; just take your time and pick your lines. There's another one about halfway down the trail; once again, just watch your line and even stock will not have any trouble.
