Hah! That is not on the trail. That is War Eagle Mill. When we're in that part of the country, we usually take an hour or so detour to make it out there.

Talking about a trip with a couple friends.

From those that have been there, what should we consider a minimum for the vehicles?

Other than my Rubi JK, we have a Jeep Commander and Toyota Tacoma in stock form. Think they'd have a problem?

Just ran most of this 3 weeks ago and going back this weekend. Possible issues for vehicles: creek crossings, trail pin stripping, clearance

Oops. Fat fingered the phone. Ground cleaeance. A lot of this trail is decent gravel roads. The power line section (very steep) you can skip. The section going into hwy 7 after the creek crossing is very steep and long and rocky with a few ruts. Creek crossings this time of year are iffy. Check depth and possible bypasses if too deep. Good tread on tires is important (lots of rocks). ATs or MTs, either should be fine, not much mud. Most all tough parts are bypassable with gps or good map.
