Bearwallow Trail

Great run thru the sides of a mountain. Going down the mountain on #15 was a treat. Rode #12, #14, #15, #19, #20.

We stayed on green trails making a large loop from the trailhead. No issues mojave on 35s

The highlighted trail for bearwallow is pretty easy but the other greens/blues easily kick up to a 5 rating. Verrrry narrow in places and steep hairpin turns made this nerveracking for a full size vehicle versus the ATVs rating this trail too. Bring a helmet and call ahead to the permit locations- none have helmets anymore so that’ll be a separate drive and a few moved or didnt have permits. Made getting on the trail annoying on top of costly

Not great for Jeeps or full size 4x4. Not a fan of this trail. In my opinion, it’s like it was really created for ATV, dirt bike, and SxS use, then opened up to Jeeps to draw in riders and revenue. The trails are narrow, and often shelved in this hilly WV forest land, few bypass and right of way spots. The concept is interesting, but not a place for Jeeps or full size 4x4s or even large buggies. Expensive Annual pass and safety gear are Required for access, which would be fine if it were fun for Jeeps. It’s just not. Yes i’m a cry baby, but hope this honesty helps someone pick a better experience for their time and money and better suited for Jeeps.
