Crane Point/FS 1273

Trail Overview

Crane Point is a 3.7-mile out-and-back gravel road that climbs from US95 to Crane Point. The gravel road is well maintained and ranges from one to two vehicles wide. Crane Point serves as the main access point to the Crane Point trail network. There is logging activity, so watch for logging trucks and equipment. Due to logging activity, there are a lot of new roads, and some roads have been removed or blocked in this area. I recommend using recent satellite imagery to verify routes. The old Crane Point/FS 1273 route shows the road connecting with FS 73693. That route is now blocked by a gate. This recorded track ends at a 3-way fork, with an open gate. All three routes lead to dead ends within a mile. The route to the far left and the far right end at decent viewpoints. The gate is posted as being closed from 10/1-6/15.
