Red Cone 3.0
Red Cone is another Jeep trail that has a reputation for being dangerous, when it is perfectly safe as long as you pay attention.
There is a one-way, somewhat steep, slippery and narrow, descent that is the area of concern. If you go off you will die, but if you are slow and careful you will be OK.
