The trail was good but I definitely recommend airing down for comfort or you will get beat up. I wouldn’t want to do the full loop with small road tires, you should at least have all terrains like a 265/70 17 on a 4Runner. I’m running 35’s and aired down to 15psi and it was very comfortable.

North side of loop is rocky and rough, lower clearance vehicles should stick to south side of loop with is well maintained smoother road.
