Started the trail around 5:30pm. Due to jackknifed horse trailer in the way. But we did it! Wouldn't suggest doing it at night again. Did it in a Lifted Tacoma with a Lone Peak on back. My buddy did it with me in a Ford Raptor with a Tune on top.

Trail was very snowy. Some hill climbs, we had to gun it up and fish tail it. 4x4 jeep rubicon lifted.

Trail was fairly easy. Sand wasn’t too soft. Creek crossings were easy. Up towards site 2.5 it’s gets rocky but nothing that can’t be handled with proper 4x4 and clearance.
