Trail Overview
This is a mild trail up until the beach area at the lake. If you choose not to turn around at that point, the trail gets narrower (about 60"). There are also several 2-3 foot deep mud holes, some 60-70 yards long. Don't attempt alone unless you have a winch and pre-determined winch points at every hole.

Difficulty
The main difficulty on this trail is the mud. Be cautious entering holes, make sure you have a plan to get out in case you get stuck.
