Stony Lonesome 12 - Valley Hill

Stony Lonesome 12, also called Valley Hill, is a one-way east-to-west trail starting at 508 and ending at 503. The trail is a long, slow climbing trail peppered with beachball and tire-sized boulders and ends with three different ledge climbs that will be sure to test any sized rig. The center exit is a triple-stairstep type waterfall with a 2-foot ledge, a 5-foot ledge, and a 4-foot ledge making for one nasty waterfall exit. The right side exit is a series of 3-foot and 2-foot ledges spaced exactly to your wheelbase, ensuring you are trying to climb two ledges simultaneously. The left side exit is a single 3-foot rock ledge with a slight undercut on the passenger side and several boulders that will bite at your rock sliders.

This trail is best suited for heavily modified vehicles with oversized tires, dual traction aid devices, winches, and skid plates.
