Difficulty

On this trail, you'll find a dirt surface with overgrown sections, muddy holes, and a small dry creek crossing. The mud holes can hold water and become slick after rain, making careful line choice necessary. Vegetation may be close to the trail in certain areas, and ruts can develop around the wetter sections. There are no major obstacles, but the combination of mud, overgrowth, and the creek crossing can make it feel more demanding at times. Overall, this trail is easy to moderate, depending on conditions.
