Trail Overview
Chinns Lake is located in a beautiful narrow valley. Unlicensed vehicles are permitted, but there isn't a staging area. Trail will start out broad, passing through a residential area, but quickly narrows to become a thin, rugged mountain road. There are a few obstacles that are optional, and the lake is great fun. This is a nice weekend destination.

Rocky dirt road. No obstacles. lake is beautiful, BUT, decent amount of trash and even human waste left at a couple campsites. if you haven't been yet, go before the area gets closed due to abuse.
