Trail Overview

This trail may be short in length, but it is certainly not short on some notably interesting sections. This trail is very narrow. It was mapped in a Tacoma, but vegetation definitely brushed the sides of the truck. If you're concerned about pinstriping, avoid this trail. In the middle section, between the two rock canyons, the trail is tilted and off-camber with a steep drop-off just inches away; it'll get your attention. Where the trail U-turns, there's a small steep hill. Advisable to avoid in wet conditions. Just take it slow with this route.

The bit of steep ledge is getting pretty sketchy with the mud.
