Osceola Spruce Knob

Great place to visit with family for camping, fishing, and hiking trails. It’s a paved road but the views were beautiful

Lots of potholes on the backside of this trail past spruce knob.

My goodness lots of uphill I took a mountain bike and walked up a long hill nice hard packed mud and pea gravel great ride

Coming from the east the climb to spruce knob is paved. The road is narrow and depending on the time of day or day of the week can have a good bit of oncoming traffic. There is a nice lookout of the eastern valley 3/4 of the way up. Make a right at the fork to continue to the top of spruce knob. There is plenty of parking and vault toilets. To get to the highest point take the short hike to the tower. When continuing down from the knob the road turns to gravel and can have many potholes and washboarded sections based on the time of the year. There are many hiking trailheads along the descent of fsr 112. At the intersection of fsr 112 and fsr 1 taking fsr 1 goes back to pavement and takes you by spruce knob lake campground and spruce knob lake. Both are worth checking out and during a new moon the lake provides some of the best star gazing I've ever seen. fsr 1 ends at county road 29.
