Trail Overview

This road accesses the Palouse to Cascades, or Iron Horse trail, as well as a number of other trailheads and forest service roads. While the main road is relatively tame, there is a small 4x4 area with some fun climbs and obstacles ranging from mild to wild, that are great for beginners to test out a new vehicle or practice their spotting and driving abilities. Bring along an extra trash bag and help do your part to leave this place better than you found it, as many have abused this privilege in the past. The road is closed in winter and is often covered in snow in early spring and late fall.

Fair amount of pot holes and some areas mildly rutted. There is a section at the beginning that is basically a pothole field that will teach your vehicle to read braille. Did see a Tesla Model S up there so it really isn't that bad, just go slow unless you want to chip your teeth.

The lower trail has been logged and the former test trails are no longer there. The trail is blocked by rocks about 3 miles in.
