Difficulty

Dirt, sand, and gravel road, unmaintained after rain or snow, which may give rise to water crossings up to 12 inches and obstacles on the trail, including small branches. This road is typically one to two vehicles in width, which narrows down to a "Two Track" road.

History

This trail is primarily maintained and utilized for forest management by the Michigan DNR, acting as access for forest surveys and timber management in the surrounding state-owned land. The area was heavily influenced by historic logging operations, with several old logging grades and at least one CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) camp located south of the compartment.
