Trail Overview
This short off-road trail is part of the Elbe Hills Trail System. This trail has several different paths to follow. This one takes you up the hill to a large mud hole which can be very difficult to pass in wet seasons. Next is a good-sized rock garden which has a bypass. The trail then continues on to the Mainline Extension or back to Road 9. This trail is passable by 4WD vehicles with a minimum of 33-inch tires. (Bring lockers and a winch during wet seasons.)
