Trail Overview

This is a mostly easy two-wheel drive dirt and gravel road. The last few miles do require a high clearance vehicle. This route is an out and back through BLM lands with lots of Pinyon and Juniper trees, open sagebrush parks, and views of beautiful red sandstone cliffs and canyons off in the distance. There is open cattle range and limited camping sites. At the end of the trail is a half-mile hike to some natural sandstone arches.

Trail was in solid shape. There were 2-3 mud holes with 1 of them being particulary daunting. It required some speed so resulted in a $45 jeep washing. There was no avoiding the 2 deepest ones.
