Trail Overview

This trail is a dirt/gravel road that is well maintained. There are several low water crossing along this trail with 3' to 8' of water to cross and all with concrete drive-throughs. The gravel road has loose rocks and some washouts/mud holes. Cedar Creek runs along the side of the entire trail. Towards the west end of the trail along the ridge line has some great views of nearby mountains. At the west end, there is a new concrete bridge that goes over the larger part of the Creek which is where they have redesigned the road. On the right, right before the bridge is the original trail that will take you to a river crossing that depending on rain may be 1' to 3' deep. You will need to turn around and come back through it to get back to the trail. There is numerous dispersed campsite along this trail. A pull-off and unloading area to park trailers is at the beginning of the east side of the trail near Highway 259. Plenty of side trails to explore off of this trail. During fall it is a very scenic drive. Just remember to pack out what is packed in and check for local burn bans. Tread lightly as always.

The trail was nice but very tight. The Pine saplings are grown right up to the edge of the road though. Dont be shy about the paint your gonna rub. I brought a 2018 Z71 on the trail and made it. There was very little to no water at the water crossing today. The rest of the trail was very dry and dusty.
