Trail Overview
This trail leads up to a fire lookout and a couple of awesome hikes. Picnic tables and a small restroom are at the top. There is a gate; it was open when this trail was run (June 2022), but may be closed. No camping on this road or at the lookout. This road is rocky with some dirt and gentle grades. The road does have sharp turns and some steep inclines, not recommended when wet unless in a 4WD vehicle. If dry, it is safe for most 4WD and high-clearance 2WD vehicles. Most of this road is two vehicles wide.
