MOTHER LODE  (3+)

Mother Lode is rated a 3+. This is the smorgasbord of trails…a little bit of everything. This trail is not particularly long, but you will encounter tank traps and a stretch of rocks that can be dangerous (watch out for possible body damage). You then maneuver through logs, stumps, more tank traps and trees. Long wheelbase vehicles must think thin, but it is possible. Remember, this is not flat terrain; there will be climbs, crevices and descents. This trail offers scenery the Black Hills is famous for, along with excitement and challenge for every skill level of driver…especially for stock vehicles.

JAKE  (4+)

"Jake" is rated a difficult 4+. This is a technical rock crawling trail that is relentless…it just doesn't let up. It starts the instant you drop into the drainage and is rock after rock until you climb out after Pinion Falls or go on to Big Bertha. Along the way you will have to negotiate a maze of rock uncovered by rains and spring thaws with an occasional water fall thrown in just to keep things interesting. Body damage is possible, but can be avoided with careful lines. Don't let this trail's length fool you. Although the trail is only a half mile long, don't plan on getting back to the campground early.
