Trail Overview

This is a beautiful and moderately challenging section of the trail that is a continuation of the Elephant Hill Trail that runs along The Grabens until it rises out of the canyon via a rocky climb out. Spotters are not required for the climb except for beginner or novice drivers. High clearance is required as is 4-wheel drive. Having rear locker is definitely a big help. This is just beyond National Park boundaries, allowing for dispersed camping. The gate at the park boundaries is always to be left closed, regardless of whether you found it that way or not. Absolutely beautiful drive.

In relatively good shape. Bobbys hole is the crust x with lots of loose silt in between the large boulders.

This trail is a 4-5 going down (North) in a high-clearance 4x4 with steep loose dirt and large rocks on the descent (see pics), but a 5-6 going up (South) given how loose the dirt is combined with the large rocks.
