Snow Bend / S.C.E Powerline Road - FS 8s085

This short forest service spur provides easy access to a great dispersed campsite just before the road is blocked by an impassable washout. The road surface is a rough, high-elevation mix of eroded dirt, chunky rock, and sections of old, broken pavement, reflecting its age as a former powerline/administrative route (S.C.E.). It runs through a dense, shady conifer forest and loses elevation quickly. The accessible section is a scenic, short challenge, but the road is permanently blocked just 0.6 miles from the top due to a significant, older washout that has not been repaired. This destination is ideal for those targeting the dispersed campsite near the washout's edge.
