This was my first time tackling this trail, and I started from the east side. It was surprisingly easy! The trail was in great shape, and the view from the top was breathtaking. I went back up from the east side, and almost to the top, there were some rocky, steep sections where I had to use my 4x4 and lock the differential. But overall, it was a pretty straightforward trail.
