Buzzard Roost - FS 188

Buzzard Roost - FS 188 is a 2.8-mile out-and-back route that follows a lightly maintained packed dirt surface through heavily forested terrain. The trail remains a single lane with few places to pass and carries an easy difficulty rating. An open area marks the end of the route. A quiet forest setting characterizes the drive, and some erosion is present along portions of the trail. Highway-legal vehicles only are permitted, and seasonal access is generally available from March 15 through January 15. Travelers should remain attentive to surface changes caused by erosion and be aware that a very unused continuation of the trail extends beyond the primary route, but should not be driven due to deadfall and trail damage. Careful route awareness is recommended near the terminus.
