Forest Service Road 2S37

Trail Overview

This trail is a 3.5-mile out-and-back trail that drops almost 700 feet and climbs over 100 feet in just under 2 miles. The trail sometimes runs along shelf roads lined with trees and brush, providing natural corridors and periodic exposure as it descends toward the valley floor. Pleasant views of farmland and the open valley below reward drivers as they navigate the descending route. The surface consists mostly of sand that creates very dusty conditions, particularly during dry periods and when following other vehicles. The trail maintains approximately 1.5 vehicles in width, providing adequate space for maneuvering while preserving the intimate character of the route. Numerous ruts exist between the main entrance and the spur trail connection, with some fairly deep examples that demand careful line selection and vehicle placement. These ruts, combined with the sandy surface and shelf road sections, create technical challenges that require attention and proper ground clearance for safe navigation.
