Description [Suggest Changes]

This trail connects West Machine Gun Flats Road to Watkins Gate Road and passes Trail 68 and Trail 69 along the way. Starting from West Machine Gun Flats you head straight up a gradual climb through the manzanita and crest the hill at the entrance to Trail 68. Keep going straight and the trail (an old road really) starts to get alternate between rutted and sandy sections.

It is pretty fun at speed but watch the sand and ruts as they may send you into the bushes along the way. Near the bottom most people will take the right onto Trail 69 (left on Trail 69 leads to a really sandy section of trail) or you can head straight out to Watkins Gate Road.

About 1 mile into the trail. Just got off the paved road and now this is the fire-road. Harder singletrack running parallel.

This is the typical quality of the trail in the spring. The 2 muddy spots were at a similar grade/width as this so they're easy to navigate.
