This trail enters the Rogue-Umpqua Wilderness and the usual federal wilderness area regulations and restrictions apply here. Practice Leave No Trace (LNT) backcountry skills and ethics. Camp 100 feet from fragile areas; bury human waste at least 200 feet from water, trails, and campsites. This trail is usually snowed-in between November and May.

Description

When Forest Road 2840-400 is open, this trail is the shortest (1.1 miles) route to Fish Lake within Rogue-Umpqua Divide Wilderness. The trail descends some 700 feet steadily, but gently, on a clear tread through an area that was burned by the 2002 Tiller Complex Fire (a lightning fire). The #1569 ends at its junction with the Fish Lake Trail #1570 at Beaver Swamp. From there, it is a short distance east to Fish Lake. Views are limited along the #1569.
