Trail Overview
Chloride Ridge FSR 2112, is a simple gravel-based Forestry Road through the Fredericktown Sector of Mark Twain National Forest. The road features a few small rolling hills with mild climbs, and a few small soft wet spots where the gravel fades to dirt, tracking past a few camp cutouts amongst the trees. The primary draw to the road appears to be hunting season, especially with the large amounts of wood and water sources surrounding the road. Towards the northern end of the trail, the Crane Pond Creek starts to parallel the road just to the east. The road begins at Warren Hill Road aka Iron County Road 124, and travels northward, ending at a turnaround and campsite cutout at 37.47283, -90.65085.
