Need to Know

The area has been closed to camping for the last several years due to "aggressive bear activity." Currently you may not camp at any of the sites along the road legally.

Description

This is a mellow gravel forest service road running through the Clarks Creek watershed. The road starts off mellow and climbs a little over 400 ft in 2.5 miles. This road allows access to Sill Branch Falls, Long Arm Branch Trail and several other unnamed trails in the area. Primitive campsites are also available along the road.
