Trail Overview

Go from 7000' to over 9100' with Sagebrush to high alpine slopes with Pine, Aspen, and great vistas. The trail is wide enough for 4-wheel drive vehicles. If the road is wet or muddy, travel can be rough and 4-wheel drive is required. Many Primitive camping spots are available. There is a significant amount of backtracking to get back to the starting point

Difficulty

Some loose rocks and steep grades, also, subject to nasty sticky mud if rain or snow has made the road wet.
