Parking/Access Road Notes
Parking/Access Road Notes: The first mile was fine, but after that: the worst road I've had the pleasure of traveling on. We had a van with high clearance but still had to crawl down the road. I closed my eyes and grabbed the scream bar for much of the drive.

Comments
Comments: Instead of doing an out and back, we followed the AllTrails loop map, coming down the back side of Redington on the logging/work road for our return trip. Very pleasant! Except at the very start of the hike, we found no water source on trail until we were coming down the back side of Redington. Something to keep in mind.
