Trail Overview
Hawk Mountain - FS 42A is a 1-mile out-and-back route that follows a rocky surface through heavily forested terrain. The trail remains a single lane with few places to pass and carries an easy difficulty rating. A loop around the summit forms the terminus of the route, and a short trail circles the summit area. Several locations contain large rocks, and portions of the route near the summit are off-camber, requiring additional attention despite the overall easy rating. Highway-legal vehicles only are permitted. Drivers should use caution when navigating the rocky sections and uneven terrain near the summit loop. The route provides access to the summit area while maintaining the character of a lightly traveled forest road.
