Trail Overview
The trail is passable by any high-clearance 4x4 and has lots of motorcycle traffic. It has rock fields, open meadows, dense forest coverage, and a couple of ponds. A windstorm recently knocked hundreds of trees down, which makes for great views and looks at the root system of the trees.

Difficulty
Due to the tremendous amount of moisture in the area, the trail has many mud holes and moguls. There are also a couple of small rock fields, the largest of which was at least 12 inches in diameter.
