Trail Overview

Crane Mountain FSR 2108 is a gravel forestry road through the St Francois Mountains in the Fredericktown Sector of Mark Twain National Forest. It is an easy-going gravel road, with two small creek crossings, shallow water collection spots, sections of course gravel/rock, and gradual graded hills. The road features the typical washboarding, mounding, and erosion rutting to be found on a forestry road.

Difficulty

The road is easy going, but does feature two small feeder creek crossings, that in the event of heavy rain could have a small amount of water in them, there is also a few small water collection spots, and the main hill climbs show signs of erosion rutting that could become worse between maintenances if the season was very rain filled.

Road is a little wet and eroded, more water on it than I remember back in 2024 when I visited last. It seems to had some brush and foliage service done to its edges as of recent, definitely not as tight, with small 1-3 inch diameter stumps as evidence of this work. Hills are a little eroded and rocky, but still easy.

Massive clean up event happened here, via Heartland Trail Trash, 11800 pounds and one unweighted trailer of tires were taken out of the forest on this day. Keep this movement going, find problem spots, waypoint them on OnX, and then send them to Heartland Trail Trash on FB. Let's make the world a better place!
