Trail Overview

This trail follows a well-maintained gravel road that is mostly smooth, with occasional corrugations. It winds through a wooded landscape with several ascents and descents, some of which are noticeably steep. Along the route, the trail passes a scenic lake and an open meadow, adding to the natural appeal of the drive. The area is popular with canoeists and local outfitters, so drivers should be mindful of both fast-moving vehicles and pedestrians. A brush dumping area is located along the trail, and several private residences can be found scattered throughout the route. There are also a few points providing public water access. Toward the end, the trail continues on to Mudrow Lake and transitions into Forest Road 457. At the junction, a snow trail branches off to the right. The trail does not offer any formal or dispersed camping options, and it lacks facilities such as trash bins or a water supply.
