Trail Overview
This is a lightly traveled trail with a dirt floor. Uneven, rutted dirt trail with erosion. Potential water crossings up to a foot deep, in the winter, and in some spots the rut is 3ft deep steep grades. Roads are typically one vehicle wide with places to pass. The wet season sky rockets the rating as the traction diminishes greatly you'll find pine trees and manzanitia along the trail with some great spots to take pictures.
