Trail Overview

FS 9018J winds through a serene pine forest and is a trail marked by both recent maintenance and natural obstacles. The north section has been recently graded, providing smoother terrain, though the trail can still get muddy, especially after wet weather. Wildlife sightings, including elk, are common along this quiet route. Travelers should be prepared to navigate around downed trees, which occasionally block parts of the path and require detours. The south section features some rocky patches and deep ruts, but most of these can be bypassed with careful driving. A gentle reminder: there's a gate near a farm along the trail—please be sure to close it behind you to respect private property and maintain access.

Difficulty

Mostly easy-going thanks to recent grading, but mud, natural obstacles, and rocky patches add moderate challenges. High clearance and 4WD are recommended, especially in wet conditions. Suitable for drivers with some off-road experience who enjoy a scenic forest drive with occasional technical sections.
