Trail Overview
The name says it all. This well-maintained gravel road is smooth, with gradual turns and great views. It buzzes from the tarmac back into the valley and hills to provide easy access to this section of the Silver State trail. There is a lot of mining activity near the tarmac and plenty of offshoots to keep the adventurer busy for days. There are a couple of great dispersed camping spots with excellent views and a few bars of LTE Verizon cellular service. Smooth, wide, and easy.

Difficulty
Very wide and very well-graded. The perfect access road to get over the pass and find a basecamp for RV's or trailers to explore the Silver State Trai.
