“At first easy, then moderatate, then a challenging climb from the Millwood parking lot to 4 Corners.”

— Dan Oakland
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

You can encounter snow in spots for 4-5 months out of the year.
Features: eMTB allowed

Description

Starting at the Millwood OHV Staging area you'll climb Abbot Creek Road (aka Forest Rte 13S58) to 4 Corners. At first the ascent is easy, but it gets more challenging the closer you get and with about 2 miles to go, it punches up. There are lots of great views looking West down towards the Fresno area. Look up to granite faces of the Verplank Ridge. You'll pass a campsite giving the road its name, right around where the grade picks up.

Imagine finding a tree so large that it dwarfed the tallest building known at the time. Before it became the Chicago Stump, the General Noble Tree was the largest tree ever cut. It would have taken about 18 men with arms outstretched to complete a tree hug.
