Trail Overview

Punch and Judy FS 618 is a Forest Service road located within the Jefferson National Forest. The trail is predominantly well-maintained, providing access and connections between a handful of other routes in the area. Recent maintenance on several portions of the trail has resulted in smooth, graded gravel sections with minimal driving difficulties. However, some stretches still feature lingering potholes and ruts, and the northern entrance can become quite muddy following recent rainfall. The route also features a few narrow shelf roads with tight turns, though it remains generally wide enough for two vehicles to pass. Along the way, drivers can access Totten Branch, Poor Valley, Bobs Spur, and Baker Branch. While most of these are standard Forest Service roads, they offer a decent amount of additional exploration opportunities.
