Trail Overview

USFSR #537A is a seasonal trail usually only open during hunting season or during times of controlled burns. It is accessible from Cleburne County RD 66 by private land right-of-way, but very seldom is that gate open. It is also accessible via USFSR #500. The area that is private property is clearly marked. Please be aware that the trail stays on the high ridge that circles around the Henry Creek Rifle Range. The trail is frequently marked with warning signs. With the trail being used more as a fire break, it is mainly red clay that can get very slick in wet conditions. It is not heavily traveled, so there is not necessarily a hard bottom.

Fun trail. A bit overgrown with grass in places. Some areas were a bit technical and required 4LO. Map made it look like we could get to County Road 66 from the fire tower, but the gate was closed and locked at the bottom of the trail just before the road. Had to turn around and drive all the way back up the mountain.

This is a nice trail to off-road but it runs into gated/fenced private land at the end, forcing you to turn around.
