Trail Overview
This is a very non-technical road that connects from the Cathedral Valley trail up to Elkhorn Road by Fish Lake. What the road lacks in technical fun and challenges it more than makes up for with sweeping vistas of the Capitol Reef area as well as Thousand Lake Mountain. It can be driven in either direction just as easily. There is an extensive network of lesser trails in the area with lots of campsites, most undeveloped. It is not maintained and will be impassable during late fall, all winter, and early spring.

Difficulty
Wide enough for two vehicles in most sections and level, graded dirt the full way.
