Trail Overview

There are so many trails in this area, you could take a whole week and never run out of things to do. A lot of camping spots big enough for RVs and camp trailers are available at both ends of the trail. Bring your ATVs and dirt bikes to try out the huge system of trails that cross throughout the area and offer a little more challenge.

Difficulty

Moderate. Most of this route is easy except for a short downhill section on F.S. 358 between Waypoints 04 and 06. This section is steep and rough in spots. An optional side loop, starting at Wpt. 03 and going around 357A and 357B, is quite narrow and steep. When we attempted to drive it in our stock Wrangler, we encountered some badly washed-out sections. The area is better suited for ATVs and dirt bikes.

Very tame trail. One steep narrow part of you take the right when it splits. 4L stock Tacoma walked up it no drama.

Pretty easy trail for the most part. I would say it’s a green trail except for one very small/tight section that was a little rougher and required some more articulation. Easy enough in my stock Ranger Tremor.

This was a great trail! Pretty easy, 2WD car will have some troubles on the steep grades and big berms/ruts. Only “trickier” spot is stretch on 358 where it gets narrow and steep, but that’s about it. Great views!!

Snow packed. Many trails have not been traversed yet. Tire chains recommended for vehicles.

Did the whole loop in an hour. Lots of ATV and SxS traffic. Some amazing views. Only slightly rough spot was at the north end of the loop going downhill towards the west.

Just did the East side of the trail from south to north. Some traffic on the road. The road wasn’t bad, passed a converted ambulance and small explorer so trail isn’t too difficult. Some steep berms for erosion prevention.
