Dry Copper Creek Road/FS 2451-100

Trail Overview

This is the perfect getaway! This trail is a steady climb on loose gravel for most of the trip. There are no real "obstacles" for the 4WD enthusiast, but there are fallen trees, low overhanging trees, rock slides, and washed-out trenches in the trail. For the most part, this can be done with a high clearance 2WD vehicle with good tires or some AWD vehicles. Numerous rock slide areas with sharp shale rock can cut your tires. You will find multiple pull-outs and camp spots with rock-lined fire pits made along the route, but 3 great spots stand out and are marked with waypoints. The trail follows along a ledge, with a very steep, long drop-off! You can't see most of it through the thick trees, but it may make some people a little squeamish. The trail is closed in the winter, and there's no cell service on the route.

Difficulty

Due to the overgrowth of a large portion of the trail, there are narrow areas with poor visibility. The trail was mapped in the spring while there was still snow and some downed trees.
