Trail Overview

This unmaintained trail winds through a quiet section of pine forest. The surface is mostly gravel, though some parts are quite rocky, requiring slower speeds and more careful tire placement. The route includes several gentle ascents and descents as it meanders through the trees. There is a small clearing beside the trail that could serve as an informal parking spot or a potential site for dispersed camping, though there is no established fire ring or other facilities. The trail appears to pass through an area that may be slated for future logging activity, and signs of forest management are present. The main track ends at a junction with another trail that continues to the right. There are no formal campsites or services on this trail. As is typical in much of Superior National Forest, dispersed camping is generally allowed outside the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
