To enter the trail system, there is a 50" gate at the day use and a slightly wider (54"?) gate near the campground. This is a fun, narrow and slow winding intermediate technical trail. Chainsaw is required to bring along for any size group ride as locations to turn around are limited. There is also a limited number of wider 4x4 trails (brown-pdf map) and general forest roads open to wider than 50" UTVs (75" max).
