Trail Overview
This gravel-based forest road gradually climbs up along a ridge on Bulldog Mountain. There is a bridge over Lower Cabin Creek, and also cattle guards, so you will need to watch your speed. The trail has minor ruts and wash, and running spring water on a section of the trail. At the end, there is an open gate onto road 74, which leads you around Bulldog Mountain and meets the Taylor Ridge Hiking Trail. Road 74 has an open gate, but shows as a closed road on the map. At the end of this trail, close to the gate, there is a large, flat, round campsite with a large rock on one side that will provide shelter from the wind if camping. The area is large enough to be a pull-through turn-around if pulling a trailer, or a great spot to unload Powersport vehicles. Cell phone service was weak, and there were no amenities on the trail. Any vehicle type should be able to traverse this trail with no issues. The views are amazing, and stretch on into the distance for miles. From the start of this trail on the paved road of Highway 602, you are approximately 20 miles from the City of Kettle Falls, where you will find services and supplies.
