Trail Overview
This is the back way and or easier route into the Motoqua birthing caves, although it's better used for making a loop after seeing the caves, as the trail coming in from the south is far more fun, scenic, and challenging. It is narrow and rocky in spots but a fairly easy trail for any rig with decent ground clearance.
