Trail Overview

Watch Mountain starts off as a pretty well-maintained dirt and gravel trail. It is approximately 1.5 car widths wide for the majority and slims down to one car width in places. This is an active logging road and while we did not encounter any logging trucks, there was evidence of recent logging. We did encounter other explorers on the trail and it did get very dusty at times so please be cautious of others. Per the green trail on OnX, we expected this trail to continue farther than it did. We reached a dead end where there were multiple fallen trees and overgrowth and no signs of a continued trail. We also encountered multiple spots of landslides that were just off the trail itself. They did not block the trail.

Difficulty

I rated this a two because it is primarily easy going dirt and gravel, however, it is unmaintained in the winter and can have some overgrowth if not tended to.

The last couple trees were just cleared. Pretty basic trail, not much in the way of views. For more fun, take the side trail to Watch Lake.

This road is inaccessible due to huge land slide a couple miles in. Some adventurous two wheelers could continue and be faced with riding creek bed with loose rock and severely over grown trail.
