Trail Overview

This is a scenic route suitable for any stock 4x4. There are no obstacles to tackle on this one, there are a few creek crossings that could be deeper depending on the time of year. Most of the trail is up along a ridgeline with sprawling views of the Mazatzal Mountains to the West and some roaming cattle.

Easy trail with a nice river crossing. Great place to take a break. The dogs enjoyed the break in the river.

Lots of large ruts from recent rains. Water level wasn’t super high at crossing points. Quite rocky

Decent condition given recent rain. River crossings not an issue.

Very fun trail. 80% is very easy but does have some challenges. Couple steep and rocky inclines. Atleast two points where the trail passes through the creek. Water was about a foot deep. Most parts of the trail are narrow with few parts for vehicles to get by.

Access Description

You can run this in either direction, but I started this on from the South and ran it clockwise to the North. I followed Doll Baby Ranch Road to the start, just West of the private property. Other than a small 1/2 mile section, it's all paved until you pass through the PP. Follow posted signs about remaining on the main road while passing through private property.
