Trail Overview
This trail is a mostly graded gravel road, with a few smaller rocks sticking up out of the gravel. This road winds up Death Canyon and passes several old mining ruins. There are a few areas where the trail gets a little tight at the bottom of the wash due to overgrowth, but I fit through in a full-size vehicle without any stripes.
