Trail Overview

This easy dirt road cuts through Salmon River State Forest, offering a smooth ride with a few rockier sections--nothing a stock 2WD vehicle can't handle with a bit of care. After rainfall, you may encounter some muddy spots and shallow puddles, typically less than 12 inches deep. The road is wide enough for two vehicles to pass comfortably, and also provides access to several hiking trails that lead down to the river.

It rained last night and the road was wet. An enjoyable drive through the woods. Someone must have recently come through to clear downed trees. There were some fresh looking cuts on branches crossing the road. I’m not sure I would take a sedan, but there’s nothing technical here.
