Trail Overview

This is a short spur off of 16EV223. It winds through the forest, and has a couple of downed logs on the trail. It probably doesn't get ridden as much since it's just a short spur very close to the Deer Creek Staging Area. The trail is closely lined with lots of small young pines. Some of the downed trees are hanging at head height you have to watch out for. It exits the forest section and goes into more scrub oak with sharp loose rocks that you have to ride over. This trail isn't too difficult because it remains pretty gradual the whole way, even in the rockier sections. The north end intersects with the ATV trail 16EV223 and the next spur, 16EV249. This trail is seasonally closed 12/16 - 4/14 to motorized use.

Access Description

This trail system in the Stanislaus National Forest can be accessed from either the Deer Creek Staging Area on the west side of the trail system, or from Crandall Campground on the east side of the trail system. The Deer Creek Staging Area is a primitive dirt lot with space for several vehicles and small trailers, accessed via Italian Bar Road. The Crandall OHV Parking and Camping Area has several primitive camp spots with picnic tables. All of the trails are open from April 15 to December 15, but it gets really hot and dry in the summer here, so the best times to visit are spring and fall.
