Trail Overview
This short trail is a highly scenic trail that branches off of Baxter Sawmill Road and follows a ridge line before dead-ending at an overlook. The entirety of the trail is scenic with amazing views all around as you traverse across the top of the ridge. The trail is rough and rocky and is only one vehicle wide for the majority of the trail with little space to pass, so you'll need to take it slow. The road dead ends at a small rocky turnaround with enough room to park and turn around. This trail only has a couple of dispersed camping sites along it that tend to be a little overgrown with grass, but on a non-windy day can make for some scenic camp spots. This road is closed seasonally from November 16th to June 15th, but may be inaccessible due to mud or snow.
