Ran it from east to west. Some snow pack. Not enough to trouble even this newbie (granted JLU with 3in lift 35s) - did end up spinning the wheels a couple of times - but that was user error in not placing tires on pressed down tracks. One ~30 foot section of ice (near waypoint 18?) - presumably frozen snow melt. A fellow off-roader in a truck was kind enough to guide me through it. The rocky section (soon after the ice) warrants the 4-5 rating - needed some careful tire placement and spotting. Managed to not scrape anything under. Not gonna lie - it did make me think of turning back, but it was not sustained - just one 30-40 ft section that was the crux. Glad I plowed through. Views at waypoint 6 were beautiful!

Two somewhat steep hills between waypoints 2 and 4. The steepest points read 17-19 degrees pitch on my JLU for what it’s worth. Was a lot of fun for a beginner like me. My 3 inch lift + 35 inch tires felt secure all the way. Did put in 4L for the steep sections.

First time out off roading! Nice easy and pleasant trail exactly as advertised. Not much traffic - maybe 10 vehicles for entire back and forth trip. Great for beginner like me. Some nice views. A bit of snow on the ground, touch icy in some places. 4 stars only because I’d like to save 5 stars for amazing trails (else I **** we will end up with 4.9 rating for everything!).
