Half Moon Gulch 4 Wheel'n Experiences ~ Mt Champion Mill

 
 If you're looking for a tough trail, Half moon Gulch is one fun drive.

 
Some people like to 4 wheel just for the experience of a tough climb, and getting good and stuck, 3 or 4 times.

 
For me, the beautiful scenery, mountain air, and nature all around are the most thrilling part of the adventure. 

 
We summited Mt.Champion in July 2009 with our friends Adam and Nicole.
 
 
 
 

 
Due to the limited accessibility,  the cabin and various building found on this trail are very well preserved.
