The logging road is rough. I only drove in one mile with my small SUV. Depending on your risk tolerance, you could drive in one more mile. With a truck, the entire 3 miles. |

This was a 9 mile hike for me. I only drove in one mile because I didn’t want to damage my vehicle. This can be a short 3 mile hike if you drive in the entire way. As I was leaving, I passed a tractor that was grading the road, around mile 2. I’m not sure how much of the road he was going to work on, but anything is an improvement. I followed All Trails because there are a few splits that can be confusing, but it really is an easy hike. Once in the woods, the final half mile herd path is easy to follow, but steep. |
