Awesome trail! Rocky and technical. Did it in a 5th gen 4runner with slight mods (tires and skids, but no lift). Definitely hit the skids a few times. Something to note here: when you get to the wooden cabin, the trail here says to go left up the mountain, which is significantly longer and more difficult than going across the marshy area. So, if it hasn't been raining, and you're just trying to get to the springs, take the marshy road (can see it on the map) and save yourself some time and trail damage.
