Overview

Aptly named, Swamp Trail is just that, a swamp! The mud pits seem to have no bottom and depending on the time of the year, the water can be up to a stock Jeep's headlights. Even so, if you have a stock vehicle don't let the name scare you, there is a bypass that can be used and allows for access of any high clearance vehicle to watch the better built rigs play in the muck. The best route to go on this off-road trail is east, which will drop you off in the middle of Gotcha Trail. This 4wd trail can also be used as an exit or shortcut out of Gotcha, Swamp Trail connects very close to the Log Jam, and will give you slightly faster access to some serious rock crawling action in that section of Gotcha.
