Trail Overview
As you enter from this northern part of the trail, you'll be surrounded by trees covered in moss, beautiful views of the ocean peaking in through the trees, and well-grated gravel. There are parts of the trail that are narrow with some wash-out sections and some drop-off sections on the west side of the trail. As you get close to Usal Beach, the trail will start being surrounded by berry bushes until you turn off to head to the beach. This trail does have a gate that is closed when bad weather affects the trail condition.

Difficulty
It is not advised to drive this trail during heavy rains due to washouts and ridgeline trails. It is otherwise accessible for high-clearance vehicles, though 4WD is recommended for certain sections due to loose gravel.
