I took my Jeep TJ down this trail by mistake, meant to do Flagpole Knob which is close by. I was able to do it with my 2.5” lift and 33s, but not without busting a fuel line and having to hike down the trail and leave it sitting for 3 days. Luckily there was a really nice guy who lived at the bottom of the trail to hike up with me and help me fix it. The trail is down and back up, there are 2 gates at the bottom and theres also a massive rock shelf to go over if you go around the gates (not recommended). The whole trail is very rocky which put a huge beating on the Jeep, not a smooth ride. Also there are a few puddles but theyre either shallow or have a way around them. I wouldn’t recommend for OHV travel.
