Trail Overview
This is a 2 lane, maintained forest service road that leads to the long-standing fire tower for the Northfork, ID area with a 360-degree view of the surrounding mountain ranges. The knowledgeable and friendly watchman we spoke to has been standing watch over this area for 20 summers. There is a short section of shelf road with some loose rock. Hidden away along the climb, there are two lakes with hiking trails down to them. At the beginning of the trail, there is a large area with designated campsites, burn pits, a bathroom, and a running creek.
