About This Trail

Imported description

The trail winds along Holcomb Creek. The Rock Garden is where the trail begins. You can explore a trail through Lower Largo Flats. There are many ATV and dirt bike trails in the area, but green sticker vehicles are not allowed on many main forest roads. If you stop to recreate, a Forest Adventure Pass is required. It is difficult. It's just one boulder field after another on this trail, and no single obstacle stands out. It was narrow and tippy in places. The trail crosses the Holcomb Creek and wet tires make it difficult. It is possible to increase difficulty by choosing a more aggressive line. It was recommended that there be lockers, high ground clearance and undercarriage protection.
