Hull Mountain

Trail was open and in good condition, there are a couple of side opportunities for mild rock crawling near the top, but otherwise super easy.

First time up the trail and it turned out to be memorable ! We camped on the concrete slab atop the hill and it was sheer bliss. The views at dawn and dusk are truly memorable. I did the trip on my stock Wrangler Willys 2021 LE. A few edits to the trail description below 1. The cross mentioned in waypoint 3 is now missing 2. The obstacle in the final stretch is now deeper and I am sure it will be hard to navigate in wetter weather 3. There IS however a byepass constructed to the top byepassing the final stretch 4. By day, there is an army of flies and bugs in the air. They thankfully disappear at night 5. There is almost zero mobile connectivity all the way from Lake Pillsubury and even the approach to it. Offline your stuff (incl music :) ) 6.

Fun trail with nice views. Only hard part was right before the summit, there is a huge rut that has been dugged pretty deep. Ended up backing up in a stock 4Runner with A/T tires

Great little trail, did get a bit of snow at the very top. Would think the rating of 3 is a little overkill, if conditions are dry 2wd will make it all day. Only part where 4wd would be needed would be to make the last 300 feet to the peak itself.

This Is a easy and nice trail up to the mountain top of Hull Mountain in the Mendocino National Forest. You Can keep on goin for miles after reaching the mountain top, but beware, there might be some patches of snow that is easy to get stuck in! I rate this trail as easy, mostly I had my vehicle in 2wd, there are some parts where the trail is washed out a bit and you might wanna switch to 4wd. The views are stunning and you are on your own. Do not expect someone coming by for help, so be prepared!

I enjoyed this trail. Stock 2019 Tacoma 4x4. Made it up and down fine on 2-WD. I saw a prius coming down when I was at the staging area, but I doubt he made it to the summit. The view at the top of Mt Hull was great, we ended up camping at one of the pull-off sites right down from the peak. Great sunset and sunrise views. There are tons of other trails to just drive down and explore. I will be back here again to do the full 40-mile M1 trail.

Completed in bone-stock Wrangler Unlimited Sport. Only suggestion would be for upgraded offroad tired for coming down from the summit: we were at/above the cloud line and rear end was easily slipping sideways in mud.
