Silverleads Ridge

Trail Overview

Silverleads Ridge is a 1.6-mile-long single track in the Salmon National Forest that is open from 5/22 to 9/7. The east end starts at the end of Stein Mountain Trail. As it goes west, it goes up a skinny alpine single track that is really narrow, through a forest of pine trees and grassy meadows. It meanders across the hillsides, with side-hilling sections that have more exposure, as it cuts across steep mountain slopes. It's mostly flat, only losing a few hundred feet of elevation gain as you go east to west. There's lots of downfall here, but most of the logs have been cut. This one doesn't have any creek crossings, unlike many of the surrounding trails.
