Trail Overview

Crossing the bridge at the end of North Fork Road opens up several trails and riverside camping spots for the more adventurous. The first right leads to fire road T57, which follows the river on the north side up to a washed-out wooden bridge and waterfall. In the springtime, the river runs high with rapids. Expect pinstripes from overhanging trees.

Difficulty

Any vehicle that has made it this far can handle this trail. There is a rutted area and a height restriction due to trees leaning across the trail.

History

This trail used to be part of a longer trail system that degraded over time. The longer trail seems to continue after the washed-out bridge.

I did this back on August 26th 2024. Just didn’t do a trail report then. decent elevation changes with 1 pretty sketchy washout section which wasn’t to bad. pretty tight throughout but had quite a few places to pass or turn around if you had to. When I got to the trail head there was a forest service truck. then we decided to head out of there. Honestly not to hard of a trail. Would define or say awd or 4wd only. it was very dry up there when I went. It might be worse now than it was then.

Access Description

After the gun range at the end of North Fork Road, cross the bridge to the left and take the first right.
