Trail Overview

Duncan Knob, designated as Forest Road 124, is a seasonally open trail with access windows from January 1 through January 31, April 1 through May 31, and September 1 through December 31. The route features a mix of gravel, dirt, and rocky terrain, with enough rutting to warrant a difficulty rating of 2. There are no major obstacles to climb over; rocks in the trail are generally less than 5". Vegetation overgrowth is minimal, and the corridor remains wide enough to maneuver around obstacles or pass another vehicle when necessary. The trail ends at a radio tower and a separate lookout tower, but the towers are closed to the public. There’s adequate space to turn around by driving between the two structures. Cell service is limited to nonexistent along most of the route. Wildlife is commonly seen in this area, and sightings are not unusual.
