Notices
There is current construction on the Garson side. Follow the signs, and please stay out of the work areas!
If you are aware of any important notices for this trail, please email webadmin@wildwestjeepclub.orgDescription
A trail that has it all - rocks, dirt, probably snow, grassy meadows, forests, waterfalls, awesome views, creeks and a skinny little puddle called Hunter Lake. Starts in southwest Reno and ends on I-80 at Garson Road. A very nice trail for Fall runs due to the vibrant colors. Watch out for hikers and cyclists, as this is a popular trail for them too! Also, you may receive some Nevada pinstriping if you're not careful. UPDATE August 5, 2023: The south trailhead has been updated to reflect new information regarding private property and future development plans near the previously utilized trailhead.Weather Forecast

Trail Recommendations / Other Info
Higher clearance [most crucial] and a winch if you're running it in the spring. Be aware that some groups and sites classify this trail as "stock friendly"; however, that is highly subjective (as with any trail). There are a few large rocks, ruts and steep climbs that can make things more difficult for some. Don't let this scare you off though, it's quite enjoyable!Pictures
