Trail Overview
This is a 50-inch trail. It starts high on the mountain running through tight trees. Once at the top, you drop down into a beautiful valley that offers views of a snowy range that cannot be seen any other way. There is a large rock field to crawl over on your way down into the valley. Once at the bottom, you will have to cross a 50-inch bridge, and then crawl back to the top, swerving between trees. The last section is very tight with trees and large mud holes. This is a burn area from the Mullen Fire in 2020. Heavy winds and soil erosion cause lots of trees to continually fall, blocking the trail. You will need to be prepared to deal with trees blocking the route.

Difficulty
This is very tight through the trees. Expect some rock crawling sections with steep off-camber inclines. There are deep mud holes, roughly 12 to 20 inches deep, after a good rain.
