Trail Overview

This is a very bumpy and rocky road, so those with stock vehicles should be cautioned. You will stay mostly in the trees until the North Fork Reservoir. The final stretch of road is only wide enough for one car. Billings Lake is a stunning mountain lake with camping and fishing. There are also options for camping along the route, some near McCoy Creek. Unlicensed vehicles are allowed after the forest boundary. This trail closes in the winter for snow.
