FS 2630

This single-lane offroad trail branches off Rocky Brook Road and winds through dense forest with some hairpin turns and dramatic shelf road sections. Expect a mix of forested canopy driving and exposed shelf sections where the road clings to the hillside. Some areas show signs of recent rock movement—stay alert for loose rocks and minor slide zones. Pin striping from brush and trees is common along tighter sections. The trail culminates in a spectacular panoramic viewpoint overlooking Mount Rainier and the shimmering waters of Hood Canal. Key Hazards & Notes: Single-lane road with limited pullouts—yield to oncoming traffic and be prepared to back up. Watch for developing sinkholes and undercut sections, especially after heavy rain. Rockslide areas may have loose gravel or larger boulders on the road. Dense forest means tight squeeze in places—expect pin striping. This trail rewards drivers with one of the most rewarding views in the region—Mount Rainier rising dramatically above Hood Canal.
