Mckee Spring Cutoff is a story of 2 different roads. The north/south section is a maintained dirt road with little in the way to slow down any vehicle, while the east/west portion is not maintained and has a few rough patches and washouts. 4WD is likely not required anyway, but in the event of a rainstorm, the rolling hills may prove to be a challenge when the dirt turns to mud. Perched atop the Diamond Mountain Plateau, this road has an open feel as you wind through a treeless landscape. There is no camping to be found along this trail.
