Trail Overview
This is an easy road that does not require a 4x4. The road is not maintained when it has snowed. You gain 945 feet of elevation but it is very gradual. There are several places along the road with stunning views but you would have to go in the winter to get the best views. There are several designated places to camp along the road with fire rings but not electric or sewer hookups. We did not have any cell service along the trail (Verizon). This trail connects to the Bent Creek Trail. https://youtu.be/ohZA-kut1yk
