Not particularly hard just bumpy and rocky, some deep mud holes and deeper ruts to watch for if it’s been raining. Would not recommend anything that isn’t true 4x4 with higher clearance

The lake it self unfortunately had no fish in it, we spent a few hrs trying different lures and such with no avail, following the trail south we came across a fallen tree which had blocked the trail. After multiple failed attempts to move it we ended up following a small bypass but otherwise it truly is a muddy trail
