Trail Overview
FS 7005480 is a 0.9-mile out-and-back route through Colville National Forest. This single-lane dirt road has some water-damaged sections and becomes very narrow where brush encroaches on the roadway, so expect pinstriping. A loose, rutted section with fist-sized rock creates a rougher portion of the route. The road once connected to Trail 142 but now ends at a turnaround, beyond which heavy brush and downed trees make further vehicle travel impractical. FS 7005480 is open year-round to highway-legal vehicles only.
Difficulty
FS 7005480 is rated moderate. The loose, rutted section with fist-sized rocks creates the main challenge, while water damage and very narrow, brushy sections require additional care. Wet conditions may make the rutted portions more difficult.
