Description

This Forest Service road connects Four Corners to Bull Gap and is the main artery for hikers and runners ascending to Mt Ashland. Downhill bikers tend to use the parallel Missing Links trails, while uphill mountain bikers may use this. FS Road 200 is a pleasant, steady climb with a few meadows and occasional water flowing in the trail.

Eastview Trail and Bull Gap Lower connect off to the east. NOTE: The connection to Eastview Trail is presently not signed. Wildflowers last a long time here and the views of Mt Ashland are excellent.
