This area provides a mixture of easy and technical trails through lush evergreen forest. There are three official 4WD trails.

There is not much parking at the trailheads, certainly not enough for a toy hauler or large trailer. However, there is a large area with a lot of primitive camping available. You can bring a large toy hauler / travel trailer here, there is lots of room available, and many fire rings. There are also other primitive camping areas along the nearby FS roads if you want something more private.

The trails cover about 20 miles. If you run all three, it’s just over 22 miles with a bit of backtracking.
