I still think we need to try going up the chute. Might need to do it on a weekday to avoid causing a traffic jam.
Maybe have one person take the bypass and park near the entrance to warn traffic (maybe even a cardboard sign :swear:). Once the first person gets through they can take the place of warning traffic and the first person can go back around for an attempt.

Or go on a weekday.

We actually didn't run into too many people on a Saturday from 9-2P. I think we saw maybe 4 other vehicles the whole time and they were sticking to the fire road only. Never saw another group do any obstacles.

But yeah not a bad idea to bring someone in the group who just wants to do the fire road and have them be the drive ahead lookout. On those longer offshoots there are no pullout spots so if you run into someone coming the other direction I'm not sure what you'd do.

We ran into a few vehicles going east to west but only on the main fire road, not on the offshoots.

When we ran the chute there was another guy there with his Jeep that ended up taking some good video for us. He recommended another trail nearby called Pilot Rock - 2N17X. He said it was his favorite trail in the area.
