Trail Overview
Council Rock/FSR 10 is a unique trail in the area, as it appears to be heavily and well-maintained. The trail will be easily completed by most high-clearance 2WD vehicles during dry weather, but due to some of the softer dirt sections and low-lying washes, AWD or 4x4 is recommended if rain or snow has fallen in the area. The road is just over single-vehicle-wide with plenty of room to pass in most areas and has no large obstacles. Views change frequently with the elevation changes as the track cuts through the southern foothills of the Gallinas Mountains. Cell service is spotty, with zero service in the lower elevation areas and weak service at the higher elevations.
