Trail Overview

The trail starts out as a gravel one to two-lane road. Once you get in a few miles, it becomes a very overgrown, narrow at times, dirt road with several areas of mud and obstacles. The trail dead ends, so be prepared to backtrack everything you go through. It has a few side roads, one being an old cemetery from the early 1900s (or older).

Difficulty

Trail is very narrow in places so expect limb scratches. A few areas are washed out and may require 4WD if the weather is right.
