MRS RD 4550000

Trail Overview

This route climbs to the North West from the Middle Fork of Oregon's John Day River. Along the way you'll encounter a handful of beautiful wild camp spots often used by local hunters. As the road climbs out of the valley it narrows and winds as it climbs. Near the end before it connects with a well maintained FS road this road becomes a pretty narrow two track trail that appears to be much less frequently traveled than the surrounding roads. It appears that rain or snow melt could create a bit of a challenge at some times... but for the most part the entire route is fairly easy.

Difficulty

Road narrows with elevation and rain and or snow melt could potentially create very muddy conditions at the route's highest elevations.
