Trail Overview

This is the main logging route into the heart of the Clatsop State Forest. This is an easy, scenic drive with numerous spurs to explore. Deadfall could be an issue in the shoulder seasons. Like most Oregon state forests, there is active logging so having a CB on hand is helpful. At the time of this writing, they were using CH13.
