5100

Trail Overview

This trail is primarily gravel and single vehicle width, with many areas along the way to pass oncoming traffic (if you see any). It is easily accessible and traversable by most vehicles. You may have to dodge a fallen rock or pothole here and there, but this will not distract from the beauty of the surrounding views of the South Fork of the Toutle River and Mount St. Helens. There are many drainages along the way that provide multiple opportunities for viewing waterfalls in the springtime. This route ultimately ends right after crossing the South Fork of the Toutle at a locked gate that accesses Weyerhaeuser lands on the south side of the river, but should be run to the end, as the river at this crossing is amazing. Retrace the route just a couple of miles from the end to the intersection of the 5600 Road, and continue your adventure to the east.
