Trail Information
Highlights
Part of one of the toughest rock crawling trail systems in the state. It's short, but breaking and body damage is likely. The trail runs through a skinny canyon filled with lots of rocks and boulders. The obstacle this trail is known for is Bunker Hill which consists of two parts; The Waterfall and a section of large boulders and drops where it's not uncommon for a vehicle to flop. The great thing about this trail is even if you don't have a vehicle to run it in, since it is so short, it's a very easy hike and entertaining to watch others attempt it.

We hiked this section after doing Liberty Trail. It got some additional maintenance from the last time I saw it. Winch points were painted and I also noticed that one of the vertical rocks near the bottom of Bunker Hill is now pushed over so it's not quite a drop off of that anymore. The trail looks great otherwise!
