Trail Overview

This is a well-maintained dirt gravel road with lots of pull-off spots to pop up camp and trailheads. It dead ends at a hiking trail. There are a lot of scenic views and a bridge crossing over the river. A campsite is next to the river and a small beaver pond are great locations.

Only rough spot is all most at the end by the swap and parking area, it’s just a short piece of larger rocks for water to cross the road. Still easily crossed with a car

Nice drive with the family. Looks like a great place to camp.
