To all my fellow 2wd roughians, your first time grinding through Painted Canyon Trail may be slightly tense but exciting none the less. Words of caution shared among these former reviews are accurate and helpful. Loose sand will sometimes look firm and firm sand may look loose in places and your wheels could bury fast in the wrong pockets. Every turnout into an open spot will require some inspection but it's up to you to figure out what you can and can't do. With that being said, a lot of open spots would've buried me so I played it as safe as I could although I probably could've pushed a little more. Be smart, have fun, maybe put on some Neil Young and soak in the sunshine.
