The summer around here has been uncharacteristically wet so we were warned that the Concession Lake trail would have its share of deep water crossings and mud. The trail was rated a 2-2.5 out of 4 which was the easiest of the bunch. However, after completing it (not without incident BTW), I would have to comment that this type of trail is not really for the lone traveler. A passenger (or second vehicle) for spotting duty is a must I believe. We had 9 vehicles (Jeeps of course - both Wrangler and Cherokee type, a LandRover, a Toyota FJ, and a TrailVoy!) and 3 guides which by the end of the day, came in very handy.
Here's a cross-section of trail conditions and obstacle types to give you an idea of the environment.
Oh, and nobody worry ... that tree was already felled when we got to it. It was just a little to low for my roof rack so we had to prop it up as I drove under it.
Here's an obstacle where all the parts of the Trailblazer worked very well together -- 4WD, LO range in the transfer case (2.7:1), 4.56 gearing, Auburn Ected electronic locker.
