Trail Difficulty Levels...
Level 1:
Very easy! You can drive it with a Honda Accord.
Level 2:
Easy. High clearance vehicles recommended.
Level 3:
Leave the Accord at home! This trail may require the use of 4WD (AWD is not 4WD for all intent and purposes).
Level 4:
4WD vehicles with a lift and larger tires may be necessary.
Level 5:
Half-way through our rating system! A level 5 trail is moderate. 33" tires, traction aided differentials and a winch are recommended.
Level 6:
An experienced driver with 33s will be appluaded! Front and rear differential lockers should be considered. A winch is mandatory. Vehicles without armor and skid plates will probably be damaged.
Level 7:
Trade in the 33s for 35s. Lockers are a must. Where is your winch? This trail is difficult!
Level 8:
A well equipped vehicle and driver are strongly recommended. If you are unsure about taking on a level 8 trail, you and your vehicle are probably not ready. Stick to the lower level trails!
Level 9:
This trail is very difficult. Vehicles with 37" or larger tires, Dana 60 or stronger axles and experienced drivers are a must! Expect to winch and get damage!
Level 10:
This trail is extremely difficult! Purpose built vehicles (buggies and Tube Cars) with experienced drivers may not even complete a level 10 trail! Very few of these trails exist. If you think you're on one, you're probably trespassing.
