Sweet Road

Trail Overview

Sweet Road is a hard-packed dirt logging road with two distinct sections. The west branch offers relatively smooth terrain, though washouts can appear after heavy rain. The east branch is more rugged, narrowing considerably with exposed rocks, large flooded sections, and dense brush that will result in noticeable vehicle striping.
