Located 8 miles west of Joyce, this 4×4 trail is separated by Hwy 112 from the ATV-ONLY Sadie Creek trail system. It is designed for short wheel base (103” or less) off-road vehicles. After passing through a “qualifier gate”, there is a short section of service road, and then the 4×4 trail begins. It is quite a rugged trail, steep and off-camber in places, with deep ruts, and lots of mud.

On a clear day, trail users can see the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Vancouver Island, the San Juan Islands, and Mount Baker.
Highlights: Thick forest, short, steep climbs, muddy ruts. Beautiful views on the highway driving to and from the staging area.
