Trail Overview
Mount Fredric Road in Crawford County is a double-lane route consisting of gravel, dirt, and sand. The road offers opportunities for wildlife viewing and serves as a connection to the broader off-road trail system in Northern Michigan.

The surrounding forest is dominated by pines and hardwoods, and several active oil and gas facilities are located along the track. The route can be traveled in either direction and terminates at Twin Peaks Road.
