Trail Overview

This trail can be approached from South to North or North to South. North to South will be more challenging because it is going up hill. Mainly dirt and small rocks make up the trail. The main road is wide enough for a vehicle to move aside and let others pass if needed. It is a two way trail, so watch for oncoming traffic. There is also potential for several small creek crossings, so rocks on the hill can get slippery. In spring and summer, the trail can be done in 2WD with decent ground clearance. Cell service is good for the most part and the town of Wrightwood is near the South end of the trail.
