FS 3851

Trail Overview

This trail begins as a well-maintained route leading toward the Spruce Administrative area, where there is noticeable infrastructure and a mix of foot and vehicle traffic. As the trail continues, it narrows slightly while passing additional facilities before ending in a cul-de-sac. While not designed for recreation, it may be of interest to those curious about the Spruce climate research project. The area is active with research operations, so visitors should be prepared for limited access. There are a few OHV trails that branch off from the main route but no formal or dispersed campsites, and no amenities such as water or trash disposal. Cell service may be unreliable in some sections.
