Redbird 5 Green

Route Finding and Path Redbird #5 Green is a combination of trails 24 and 25 and is the easiest portion of what the Jeep Badge of Honor depicts as Trail #5. Not only is it the easiest to drive, but it is also the easiest to route find. It originates from 0 Green North, which is more difficult than this trail. Technical The route is almost entirely dirt and potentially slick mud when wet. It is wide enough through most of the trail to let another vehicle pass. When dry, this is a simple and easy-to-drive trail. With dirt, once water hits, it turns to mud, and this trail will be slick and could prove much more challenging simply due to traction issues. Traction is the difference maker, as there are no notable obstacles. Vehicle and Equipment Recommendations It is suitable for any high-clearance vehicle with four-wheel drive and great for beginners and seasoned alike. All-terrain tires are recommended at a minimum.
