Trail Overview

Looking to connect to the main trail system from Tumalo? This is the route for you! Things to consider before going: 1) Part of this trail passes through private property, so be sure to check signage to make sure they are allowing access. Generally, the only time they restrict access is if there is a high fire risk. 2) You do need a permit for the forestry land--it's only $30 for the year. 3) The trails get tight in some parts, with bush contact likely on full-width SUVs or larger. Once you are loaded up, make your way to the trailhead!

Difficulty

This is a fairly easy trail for a vehicle with large enough ground clearance (30-inch tires or larger). If you are trying to do this in a lower vehicle (say stock Subaru), it's still possible with some finesse in your driving.
