Trail Overview

The route takes you from Mina to Marietta without using highways or crossing private property. This is great for SxSs and ATVs that are not street-legal. It can be taken by high-clearance Jeeps but the trail may be narrow in some sections. The route follows established trails but in a few of the washes, there can be no signs of the trail. Some of these washes have mild rock-crawling sections. The route offers various types of terrain with crawling speeds of 40 miles an hour. Views and wildlife can be enjoyed along the way.
