Trip report URL:

Comments: The roads start out graded then progressively get worse. Lots of sharp limestone rock notorious for slashing tires further on. Heavy duty offroad tires and airing down highly recommended.

We car camped at the turn off where the approach starts. On a map, the last 4ish miles of high clearance driving trail shown no longer exist and must be hiked to get to the edge of the rim.

Descending the rim you are eventually met with a lot of steep loose terrain. Use extreme caution here, one of our members took a tumble and almost went over the cliff. It’s pretty serious stuff.
