    Likely In-Season!
Overview: This was originally an alternate road for wagons trains headed for the 1849 gold rush in California. It fell into disuse in the 1920's. It is a non maintained county road skirting the desolation wilderness. It is used by hikers, mountain bikers, and is open to all motorized vehicles, but be warned only the best of the best will complete this adventure. It is often referred to as the crown jewel of all off road trails.
