Trail Overview
Buck Rub would be considered an alternate trail to Rocky Road or Iron Horse. It runs alongside them and would be a slightly easier trail to complete. Buck Rub starts where Iron Horse intersects with Rocky Road. The bottom is more of a creekbed like PeeWee Crossing. This trail has steep grades that also have rock obstacles and rock ledges to overcome. Once you are at the top, it is more flat with various mud puddles. Buck Rub stops when you have reached Logjam.

Difficulty
This trail has steep grades with rock ledges towards the top. Depending on recent rainfall, the trail will become very slick. A Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with a 2.5-inch lift and 33-inch tires can do this trail when it is closer to being dry towards the top.
