Last Chance Canyon - Red Rock Canyon State Park

I had a blast on this trail! Super fun, even though I did take a few of the bypasses. I would definitely say this trail is harder than a 3, its at least a 4, maybe even a 5. The obstacles themselves aren't super technical, but there are lots of them, for a non-experienced driver, it would be overwhelming. I would absolutely not take a stock 4x4 on the trail, the first half of the trail is basically one long rock garden, with the bypasses only being slightly less rocky. I used my locker often, I scraped on my skid plate multiple times and was on my sliders once or twice, and still managed to get caught on my rear diff a few times. Someone in a stock 4x4 with no sliders or skids would probably damage their vehicle in some way. That being said, I will absolutely run this trail again, it was a lot of fun, and the scenery in Red Rock state park was beautiful.

We headed up Last Chance on St. Paddy's day and followed fresh tracks all the way up. It was my second time running the trail and I find the overall experience more challenging than a TRAILS OFFROAD intermediate rating normally brings. I don't think we were in any of the optional places, but the prolific rains this year have probably rearranged some of the rocks. It's a true testament to the strength of the modern tires as so much of the trail can be called a rock garden. It's very stunningly beautiful there right now as the park is usually pretty dry and the plant life is hibernating in the heat. It was very green with some small flowers at the south trailhead!

just did this trail this past weekend 2/12/22. it can be pretty challenging in a stock 4x4. Clearance and beefy tires definitely make all the difference in the world. I did this trail on my 2.5 inch lift with 37s jk rubicon. turned my lockers on in some areas but can be done without. wouldn't recommend doing it alone. overall, a really fun trail that will challenge you if you're a beginner and boost your confidence on graduation hill once cleared.

Was pretty difficult, but this was my first rock crawling trail. Even our friend with 35s on a Xterra struggled a bit. (We made it through with a LR3, 33" KO2 lifted).

Hey Guys, my name is Troy or @dustyovrlnd on IG. Anyways, we hit this trail this past Saturday and I would say it has definitely become a lot more washed out then I remember. I had no issues in my JKU on 35s with a 3" lift, but some of the heavier 4Runners were struggling and precision spotting was needed. We even had a 2nd gen 4R blow their angler arm. I ran the trail out and back to get a new part for him and each time I remember thinking it got more difficult. The Cudahy Camp bypass was open but I think the easier route was EP15b although they did some strange rerouting and forced you around the post office and shack. Anyways, the park wants to close this trail since its being abused so much, make sure you bring extra parts/tools and pack out what you pack in. Trasharoos are like $30 people...

Great scenic trail with a few optional obstacles. The v-notch is no joke; one of the most technical ones I’ve done. Graduation hill looks more intimidating than it should. This trail is a great entry point to a whole network of trails and sights in the area.

Nice trail into Red Rock Canyon. Just enough rocky obstacles to make you feel like you did some work. We went northbound and finished with climbing up graduation hill, which looks trickier than it actually is. Good trail overall with proper ground clearance.

Great trail through amazingly beautiful geography. Went with our Tacoma (3G) on 33" tires and mild lift. Some armor scrapes here and there, still learning the best lines for this truck. Overall a great experience and not many people out there when we ran it. Highly recommended. We are looking forward to going back in our more dedicated rock-capable truck and doing some extra credit sections.

An amazing trail and great place to spend a day or a weekend! The trail was definitely rocky and 4x4, high clearance and a minimum of 32" tires will be needed to complete the trail. I spent 75% of the it in 4Lo and 25% of it in 4Hi due to the deep sand. We did all the extra credit routes and the V-Notch was especially entertaining cause the sand has recessed lower making the notch that much harder. A beautiful scenic trail that everyone should do at least once. We continued on the trail onto Graduation Hill then took EP15 towards the West portion of the Park and ended the trail ride at the Abandoned Dutch Cleanser Mine for lunch and hanging out! Also, Spoke to a Ranger on the way out of Red Rocks and as of right now he states that the trails will remain open to Green Sticker vehicles and standard registered trucks. So looks like we will still be able to enjoy the area.

A lot of groups have been enjoying this trail lately, now that it's cooled down from the Summer.

Had a great, ran the trail at night after checking Cleanser Mine. Can't wait to go back.
