Trail Overview
This scenic trail follows a single-vehicle-width gravel surface that is generally smooth and well-maintained, though there are some potholes in places. It winds through a forested landscape with gentle elevation changes, offering a quiet and pleasant drive through the woods. Along the way, the trail passes a chocolate-brown river, adding to the trail's natural appeal. Several clearings and a few overgrown side trails branch off from the main route, though these are not clearly marked and appear infrequently used. Toward the end of the trail, there is a clearing that contains an old forest machine and a shallow pit area. This spot is quite buggy, but it may serve as a potential location for dispersed camping if no better options are available. Overall, the trail offers a peaceful, forested route with limited signs of development. There are no formal campsites along this trail, and it lacks basic services such as trash disposal and potable water. Cell phone reception may be poor or nonexistent depending on the location.
