Trail Overview

Clayton Mill Road, designated as Forest Road 61, is a maintained gravel road with residential properties located at both ends. The route presents no notable obstacles, and a passenger car can travel it without difficulty. Vegetation overgrowth is absent, and the corridor remains fully open throughout the year. The road provides access to two seasonally open trails — Walker Mountain and Betty's Hill — as well as several hiking opportunities, including Back Draft Trail, Clayton Mill Creek Trail, and Sam Judd Ramsey Trail. Numerous campsites are located along the route, with several large enough to accommodate a camper. On the southwestern end near Yost, a small roadside library can be found.
