Trail Overview
This trail is most easily accessed from the north end near the Bristol Head CG. While it can be done from south to north, the southern terminus of the trail is difficult to find as it is hidden from view on Hwy 149. The trail is one vehicle wide with areas to pull aside for oncoming traffic. Rocky and steeper grades, along with many areas filled with water, provide for a fun trail. Narrow in some areas with trees on both sides will provide opportunities for desert pinstripes. Amazing views of Bristol Head and in close proximity to the CR16/FR 510 - North Clear Creek Falls, Bristol Head - MF 532, and Stony Pass trails.
