Trail Overview
This is a well-maintained dirt trail that almost any 2WD passenger car could make. The trail runs along a river, then Forks away, and continues along a smaller creek. There is a large dispersed campsite at the beginning of the trail on the left after you cross the bridge right over the river. The trail ends at a hiking trail with access for horses, and stock sign-in and permits are required. Please look those up before attempting the trail. There are quite a few pull-offs along the main trail. They are along the river with plenty of access down to the water. It's not maintained in the winter. This area has no cell service.
