Bumps and dust. Take some extra water. The Basalt rock will eat your tires, like driving over sharp points the whole way.

I was up in the umtanum this oast weekens burning leather and seen bunch cows, little bucks, doesamd a lone spike.....the big boys were hiding for now.  I hink the logging Iimproved the road from the bottom to the intersection of clemans and bald   I went down hog and it was ok just take it nice and easy with some good tires and  alittle lift and you'll be fine.  Low amd slow just like bbq-ing    the swaying put my daughter to sleep more than once so it s not that bad.

You'd be surprised the knuckleheads up there with 2WD vehicles, bald tires and no snow chains. I heard some of the road are better due to the fire on the Manastash?

Lost season I pulled one dude out on may up the mountain. I told him to stay on the up hill side of the road because of all the snow melt the ground is soft and muddy. I dropped my buddy off and I went to sit. Shoot I for got my rifle in camp. LOL  . It was leaning against my camp chair. I drove back down and the same guy was stuck again 400 yards up.    I didn't see him so I left. I grabbed my rifle and headed up. I saw him digging so I hooked my chain up and pulled him out. I told him to follow me up so I could show him out. CRAZY lol  The funny thing is my buddy ran into him again that day and 4 people digging and pulling for 2 hours. If I would of ran into him for the third time. I would of floored it. LOL

Last year we were running to town and right near the bottom of BaldMt Rd.  was a pick up pulling the biggest 5th wheel I ever saw. He was right on the road with two flats. Trying to change a tire on the slope.

He was headed down. I told him I would have pulled down to the intersection where it was more level.

Can't believe the size of trailers folks haul up that hill.

Crazy.

I have been hunting this area for years and most in the same Chev Z71 (1994) with General tire Off road rubber and have never had a problem. I have been to all the locations on this post. The only flay I have had with Generals was on a trip to WYO where the goat heads went through everything.
