Description
Dealers choice: I am doing all the challenging trails some of the rigs may struggle with articulation. They are off camber, tippy with some large rocks, rock sliders are a must. Jeeps will be fine. There is the easy road that goes around all the obstacles. We are also doing 2n17x, if you feel comfortable with the gate keeper you should be able to navigate the rest of the trail. You can also bypass 2n17x on the easy road or your can head home.
Best Time: Spring or Fall This is a day trip. Bring lunch

The plan is to do Cleghorn in the morning then 2N17X(D) and Pilot Rock Road(M) in the afternoon.
Cleghorn is an easy trail and a difficult trail that keeps crossing with pretty good views of what is ahead. Most of the obstacles are steep climbs. There are usually bypasses for the rough stuff. 2N17X has some steep and rocky ascents and descents. There is about 3.5 miles of pavement between the two trails.
We should be at the trail head by 0800.
