Trail Overview

Alexander Mountain, or Forest Service Road 1703, runs between Locke, on the southwest end near Devil's Canyon, to Hurricane Creek Rd, near White Rock on the northeast end. It can be run either direction. This trail offers beautiful scenery with a mix of challenging and easy trail sections. The road at the top of the mountain is easy with very little difficulty, while the most challenging portion of this trail will be the climb/decent between Hurricane Creek and the top of Alexander Mtn, including the creek crossing. There are a few large camping spots on the top of the mountain and some smaller spots near the creek.

Ran this west to east. It was storming pretty hard but this trail really isn’t that bad. It may look a little intimidating to new off-roaders at the climb after the creek crossing. Just take your time and pick good lines. This is a very fun trail.

We went north to south, and at first there were a few miles of gravel that weren't very exciting, then it all changed once we started descending the mountain. Lots of large rocks and tricky spots, got a new scuff on our wheels, but it was lots of fun! We opted to go around the long way to get back to White Rock Mountain though.
