This a wide, normally well-maintained,
unpaved 2WD road. The road may be corrugated and suffer some erosion, but it can
be safely traversed by a normal passenger car in good conditions.
The route travels through pine forest with
occasional aspen groves and past many interesting, large rock formations.
A viewpoint to see the beautiful Pikes
Peak.
