Difficulty

Rogers Road - FS 113 is generally a simple gravel road. It is mostly a 1/10, especially if dry, consisting of a flat valley and mild-graded hills. The 2/10 base rating comes from the 3-6 inch water splash where feeder branch creek lays and from the mild grades up and down the hills of the road, where between maintenance cycles rainwater channels form mild 3 to 12-inch erosion ruts exposing the base of loose coarse natural gravel. At a minimum, expect washboards, potholes, mounding of the gravel, and spots where the gravel fades to dirt. The road could become more difficult after heavy use, wet conditions, and inclement weather, but it also could be mended to be a 1/10 road again.
