There was a narrow and rutted area with washouts, small rock obstacles, tree roots and steep sections. It is not very difficult for a well equipped, hard-core vehicle. There is a chance of roof damage due to tippy section through trees. After maintenance, the trail conditions may be easier. It is recommended that hikers and horse riders watch for the trail.
