Trail Overview

Potato Hill Connector is a 1.2-mile point-to-point trail connecting Potato Hill Road (Trail 783) with Brush Creek (Trail 289). Starting from the west, the trail begins as a narrow double-track before quickly becoming heavily rutted and off-camber. At 0.25 miles, a cattle guard with posts approximately 80 inches wide creates a width restriction; vehicles exceeding this width will not fit through. The trail maintains these challenging conditions for another quarter-mile before concluding with a short but steep descent. Beyond this point, the route transitions to a smooth, well-maintained gravel road for the remainder of the distance. Potato Hill Connector does not have seasonal closures listed.

Difficulty

With off-camber sections of deep ruts, slick mud, and steep grades, Potato Hill Connector is not suitable for 2WD or low-clearance vehicles. Full-size vehicles may require a spotter when navigating the cattle guard to avoid damage. Weather conditions, particularly rain and snow, significantly affect trail difficulty. A chainsaw or other equipment for clearing downed trees is recommended.
