Three Camps (West) - NFR 201-2

Trail Overview

Three Camps (West) runs east-west across the middle portion of the northern half of the Bessey Ranger District of the Nebraska National Forest and Grassland (near Halsey, NE). The trail has a seasonal restriction - it is closed to motor vehicle traffic from September 1 through November 30. The trail is two-track, with a sandy surface. Occasional washouts and rutted areas are present where there are inclines. Because the land is also used for livestock grazing, there are multiple gates that must be opened and closed. The western third of this trail passes through a sparsely treed area of the forest; the middle third is all rolling hills and grassland typical of the surrounding area; and the eastern third passes through a more dense portion of the forest. The forested portion of the trail is also lined with poison ivy; take care to avoid contact if clearing tree debris from the road.
