Forest road 650 need SUV?

Post by Vesper »

I'm hiking passage 18 and would like my group to pick me up tomorrow where the trail crosses forest road 650. Would they require a high clearance vehicle?

@Mikehard Very likely... and a 4x4 to boot.
FR 650 does not get regular maintenance so it is MUCH rougher up to Rogers Trough than FR172.

So... I would recommend taking FR 172 up from the other direction.

Thanks much. I've told them to drive a 4x4
