Trail Overview
Missouri Tie is a 5-mile unpaved route winding through the Siuslaw National Forest along the Lincoln and Benton County border. The narrow corridor is heavily overgrown with dense coastal foliage, making vehicle pinstriping highly likely.
The trail has a low technical difficulty rating of 2, requiring basic high-clearance four-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive. It is not maintained during winter, when drivers may encounter mud, washouts, and downed timber. Several primitive dispersed camping pull-offs are located along the route, with no developed amenities.
Access Description
The route runs through the Siuslaw National Forest and is not maintained during the winter. Tight foliage encroaches closely on the road, making vehicle pinstriping highly likely. No fees or permits are specifically required for driving the road, but standard US Forest Service regulations apply.
