This trail tours the "Behind the Rocks" country without need for a vehicle that is modified from its original condition. It avoids the very difficult and the very easy routes but passes near the hills at High Dive Canyon and White Knuckle Hill for the amazement of those who keep their driving at the 3 1/2-rated level. The Tip-Toe routes intersect the difficult version of Behind the Rocks, and even share a few miles of easy trail portions, but the portions that are exclusive to this trail are especially scenic. The difficulty rating was raised a half point a few years ago because of continuing erosion of some rocky descents where we usually have to re-arrange rocks every trip. Approximate mileages: 53 total, 33 off highway. |
