Trail Overview
This section of trail leads to the West Fork Buttermilk Trailhead (hiking). It's an easy and gradual dirt road up to the trailhead; 2WD capable with nothing of difficulty to note save for a few washboarded sections. The further up the trail you travel, it becomes a little bit narrow with vegetation overgrowth and the occasional downed/hanging tree over the road. The area is unmaintained (closed) in the winter and early spring months--no cell service.
