Trail Overview

This is a great area to ride ATVs and dirt bikes. There are also roads open to SxSs and high clearance vehicles. The area can be very confusing if you don't have a forest service motor vehicle use map. This would also be a fantastic area for easy backpacking, as there are many lakes just a short trek from the trails. This trail passes by Echo and Pyramid Lakes and offers great high views along the whole trail.

Lots of wildlife, and so many hidden lakes. was a beautiful fun cruise up the trail, there are a few diff breakers, so be cautious!! 🪨. But ultimately no obstacles were too extreme. Took my baby boy, and wifey up in our 1995 4Runner and had a blast!!
