Difficulty

Dirt, sand, grass, gravel route typically unmaintained after rain or snow that may give rise to water crossings under 12 inches and obstacles such as tree/ tree branches and potential overflow from the Clear Creek.

History

FS 2297 and FDS 2200 are historically tied to glacial outwash jack pine barrens, intensive logging, and Henry Ford’s 1930s timber and model-town operations at nearby Alberta; these sandy routes now serve as popular motorized ORV and snowmobile trail corridors.
