Bunce School Road T33 Crash Site

This is a really cool trail. I'd heard about it for years and always thought it was just right off one of the main roads. Turns out it's several miles back in the mountains down a very narrow and rocky trail. We decided to take a look at it today. We probably bit off more than we can chew as we thought it was pretty difficult, but we made it through with some very light carnage. My wife was a good spotter on the ledges. Even on a weekday, this trail was loaded with ATVs and side-by-sides. You can tell not only by how narrow some of the turns are, but also from the hundreds of scraped trees that this is more of a ATV trail than a Jeep trail. We had numerous people tell us that they were surprised to see us at the end. Here's a bunch of pictures showing some of the trail and the crash itself.

That is so cool and even more so that so much of the wreckage is still there. I'm gonna have to put this on my list of things I need to see. Thanks for posting this up [emoji1303]

It is bittersweet. You get that feeling standing there reading the sign.

Wow. I didn't think there'd be any wreckage there.

It's surprising, but at the same time, it would be difficult to have it removed based on where it's at.

Good luck. Plan on narrow navigation, lots of rocks, and a GPS really helps, study the route ahead of time. Lots of little forks.

Great write up. That sounds like a great destination trail.

Thanks. It was cool to explore.
 
It's unbelievable that amount of wreckage is there and in good shape. Usually you get a bunch of bullet holes and defacing of the property.

Looks like a fun trail as well.


Thanks for sharing.

Great run and story, although tragic! I love trails with a unique destination like that, with something historic, or a spectacular view verse a loop back to a parking lot. I really need to get out of Michigan more!
