Trail Overview
Kuykendal is a combination of dirt and rock that will be easily accessible by most 4x4 and AWD vehicles and provides wide open views and numerous areas to disperse camp. While primarily single vehicle wide, there is substantial room to pass if needed. There is some rutting present with a few low-lying areas that will be muddy after rain and possibly shallow water crossings. Several rock gardens are scattered through the trail, however, there are no obstacles larger than 12 inches. The trail connects from CR137/Queens HWY and runs south to FS540/Scenic Drive. Wildlife is abundant and active in the area and ranges from elk and deer to bobcats and coyotes. There are cattle in the area that frequent the roadway towards the northern end of the trail. Cell service is fairly strong at the north end, becoming slightly weaker towards the south.
