Bradley Ridge - FS 3521

Trail Overview

Bradley Ridge (FS 3521) is a gravel and dirt forest service road within the Poplar Bluff Unit of Mark Twain National Forest. Starting from the Bear Creek FS 3715, the Bradley Ridge forks to the left and would appear as the road that continued from where it began at US-60, but is actually a new road, despite the surface continuing as a well-maintained road, going downhill into the lower ridge spines, passing a cutout opening on the left. The road continues having small elevation changes, occasional natural rocks poking out at the surface, and minimal complications before meeting an admin/private property gate with a 3-point turnaround placed just before it. This is the MVUM Sanctioned endpoint of the road. Users must turn around here and head back out the way they came.
