Trail Overview

Big Flat is a fun trail up in the Snake Creek area. It is definitely a tighter trail, with a chance you might get a pin stripe or two, especially in a wider vehicle. This trail does have one spot that adds to most of the challenge, and is a steep, rocky climb that you will most likely want a spotter so you don't scrape a door on the big rock that protrudes from one wall on the side. We did this trail very early in spring with snow still covering parts of the trail, so we do not know for sure, but it does look as though there is a bypass to this optical, but it seemed overgrown and covered in snow when we were there. Definitely a trail worth checking out with great views and fun wheeling.

Difficulty

The trail has lots of deep ruts that would end very poorly if you were to slide in. It also has some rocky areas and one area that is steep and rocky, which will feel very tippy, and it would be a good idea to have a spotter.

Main trail is rutted and led to a great picnic spot at the primary flat.

It is longer than the map shows. No issues in a jeep. A few ruts but nothing bad. Looked like a small grader or something went over the first part.
