These challenging features attract hardcore rock crawlers and crowds of spectators. Standard vehicles and ATVs should avoid these areas, as they require specialized equipment and expert spotting.

You do not need to drive these sections to complete the 6.5-mile route. Safe bypasses exist for all the major challenges on the main trail.

This famous, extremely steep V-shaped chute requires precise tire placement to climb. If you do not have a highly modified vehicle and an expert spotter, park safely nearby. It is a great spot to watch other equipped drivers tackle the challenge.
