Trail Overview

23E298 is a 1.1-mile-long easy ATV trail through the Whisky Falls trail system in the Sierra National Forest. The south end starts off wide and easy, between scrub oaks and tall pines, with gradual corners, great visibility, a little bit of whoops, but mostly smooth dirt covered in pinecones and pine needles. The trail goes past a couple of giant mossy boulders, and sometimes the big pine trees closely line the trail. A few root bands cross the trail, but don't add difficulty. The trail was clear of logs, with lots of downfall having been previously cut, but always be aware of new log hazards. There is one spot with a few bigger embedded rocks in the path, between two big boulders, but they are not difficult to ride over. The north end ends on FS 8S009. This trail is closed seasonally from 12/16 - 4/14.

Access Description

The Whisky Falls Trail System is located in the Sierra National Forest near the small town of South Fork, California. Take FS 8S009 from Cascadel Road for about 5 miles to access a small Staging Area (at the start of FS 7S007). There are many dispersed campsites along FS 8S009 along the way that can be used for staging as well. This area has several easy and moderate ATV trails that are well-marked and maintained. This area is very hot in the summer and is best in the spring and fall. Most of the trails have seasonal closures.
