Trail Overview
At the edge of Mount Reiner, nestled in the Gifford Pinchot Forest just south of the Nisqually River, Weasel hides along Forest Road 52. It is a densely forested road containing a few campsites and ending in a large campsite. Spur 20 along this path is no longer accessible, but Coyote is an excellent alternative path. Fallen trees make for an unlikely adventure for tall vehicles. But if you are looking for an adventurous trail not too far from civilization, this is an excellent trail to test your abilities. There were no visible paths to Berry Creek and no easy water access. If you happen to find access, please add a trail report.

Difficulty
This is a dirt and gravel road that is 1 car wide. Some spots have been cut out by runoff creating gouges in the road not exceeding 12 inches. The overgrown trail ends in a small campground but becomes too overgrown to continue. Potholes are found and potentially hold 6 inches or more of water in wet seasons.
History
Local rangers have considered shutting these trails down in the past as human waste has become challenging to keep up with, be prepared to pack out what you bring in as well as extra garbage if you can.
