Here is a section of map with the lane arrowed. This is the lane the grid refs in TOR say is Montel Hill.
It is a "Road used as a public path" or RUPP.
I have never driven these RUPP's are they as TOR says, open to all traffic? If so it is supposed to be the hardest road in the country. It's a rock crawl and its near Strater Florida.
I can feel a trip coming on

Think a few of us maybe doing it on our January trip. There is another near there known by laners as "the brown trousers"
Hoping to find that one too 
Cheers
