Upper Cave Gulch Road

Trail Overview

This narrow, short upper section leads into the hills to pass right by the well-preserved Garnet Ghost Town. It runs along a ridgeline with exceptional views of the valley below. It passes through a dense forest and massively deep potholes full of water when wet. There was one decent dispersed camping spot, but it was right on the road. Two bars of LTE cell service fades to none once by the mine.

Difficulty

Mostly easy, narrow in spots with massive potholes full of water across the whole road when wet.
