Trail Overview

This trail is a short 2-track hill. It starts off with a hardpack OHV trail and about a 1/3 of a mile in, you will get to a steep sand hill. This feature alone makes this a 4 or 5/10. You will need some speed and skill to make it up the deep sand slope. Other than this section, the trail is a 2 or 3, depending on the weather conditions. The views are amazing once on top. Enjoy!
