Trail Overview

This 6.2 mile out and back trail used to run along the Nooksack River and then up the Wells Creek Valley, but a washout on the road around 3.4 miles in has closed the upper portion to vehicles. This area has several dispersed camping areas along the Nooksack River. This road is passable by 2WD, AWD, and 4WD vehicles.

Plenty of potholes the further you go. There's a vandalized abandoned(?) RV midway through the trail. High clearance recommended.
