Hasn't voted | Thanks for the update. But I am a little confused. I thought the "trailhead" where the small parking area is down the short road to the right was always drivable by an ordinary car. Maybe there was a washout I didn't know about that happened recently. Can you tell me where your trailhead (as you state it above) is on this map I made in 2004?  | |

Hasn't voted | The road was recenty brushed out and somewhat graded to the old bridge where you have old end of driveable road (pre-2004) labeled. We had an unmodified Ford Ranger, and made it to that point in 4WD low. I would not recommend it for a Subaru or or VW Syncro as there are still some washed out rocky sections that require high clearance. The trail from that point is still quite brushy. Steve | |

Hasn't voted | Thanks. That at least saves 2 miles of road round trip. I made it to that old bridge in my old Honda Civic in 2003. I wonder if my Subaru Forester will make it. | |

Hasn't voted | I just went up there last weekend. I see what you mean. I made it to the end with no problem with my Forester. An Outback could probably do it but will surely scrape its undercarriage a little more. | |
