Trail has been beat up. I think the trail is rated very low for the amount of off camber and step ups that are there now. Fun and beautiful but a little rough at this time.

Great trail, something for everyone. steep scrambles, large rock (boulder) slide, gorgeous views, a hill climb one of my wheeling partners lovingly referred to as axel-break... and sure enough on our way up there was a Toyota that broke an axel getting towed up. A good spotter will be a great asset on this trail. one in my group was a purely stock sport Jeep Wrangler, being a very experienced wheeler, made it up without incident. beautiful view points along the way. these trails can get a little crowded on nice days during the summer months.

Attempted this trail from the End Point and could not get up the hill due to deep snow. If you attempt this trail be ready to turn around. Need about 3 more weeks for all the snow to go away. I'm attaching a map of "Evans Creek" that you might find helpful in getting around and keeping oriented.
