Trail Overview

Mule Peak South FS 22S03 begins off Highway M90, where the first 1.25 miles have been graded and covered with gravel by the Forest Service to improve drainage and traction. Beyond that, the surface transitions to hard-packed dirt with muddy spots in sections. The trail winds through tall pine trees and brush, much of which was burned during the 2021 Windy Fire. Shelf road sections and switchbacks appear along the route.

Difficulty

Ruts, drainage humps, and off-camber sections up to 12 inches deep appear throughout. The graveled lower section eases the entry, but conditions become more variable on the upper dirt sections, particularly when wet, where muddy spots can increase the challenge. Be aware that due to the forest fire, trees are unstable and can fall at any time.
