Abbot Butte Loop

This route provides amazing views of Mt. Jefferson and the open hillsides that were hit by a big burn years ago. The route starts out fairly tight, making it not recommended for full-size rigs or those concerned about their paint. The juniper bushes will be rubbing along your sides for the first couple miles of the trail. After leaving the tighter section of the trail, it opens up to more easy-going roads with some larger rock areas. This is a great route to get off the more heavily trafficked routes in the area.
