Peckinpah Meadow - FS 8S26

Trail Overview

This is a point-to-point trail that creates a loop with Peckinpah Road. It runs past a large meadow area as well as along the mountainside, providing great scenic views of North Fork. The route is at least as wide as a full-size vehicle and has many wider areas allowing vehicles to pass each other easily. The surface is primarily dirt with small embedded rocks. There can be occasional shallow mud holes during wet weather. Some sections are recovering from forest fire damage, so be aware that charred trees may be unstable or new fallen tree obstacles might be present on the trail. There is a restroom building and parking/staging area at the south end of the trail. An access gate maintained by the USFS on Peckinpah Road in front of the staging area is locked annually from December to mid-April/May. Weak/limited cellular phone service in the area, and no potable water sources are available along the trail. Tread Lightly and Pack-It-Out.
