The road to the beginning of the hike was difficult to get to in a 2WD vehicle. I brought a Nissan Rogue (not 4WD) and bottomed out twice and got stuck in a rut once. Doable, but not recommended. The hike itself was ok. Seems like the trail is mainly for offroad vehicles (trucks, SUVs, motorcycles), so we often had to let vehicles pass us (and kick up a ton of dust while they were at it). The trail was mostly dirt, rutted, not too much to see for the most part. The easiest hike out of the 6 that I did, but there was also no sign, and the views from the top weren't terribly impressive. Probably would not do again.
