Trail Overview

This is a side spur off of Black Mountain that will require turning around or continuing non-motorized. While it's not very steep, there is a stretch of the trail that is nothing but large rock with some drops that require a clearance of 12" plus if you want to prevent leaving paint behind. This area is mostly forested, but a few great rock outcroppings to stop and get onto and look over the surrounding valley.

Difficulty

There are narrow areas where meeting another vehicle may be difficult, but some turnout areas to allow passing. The rocky areas have some drops that are over 12" possibly closer to 20" depending on the line you choose to travel.
