The upper-end of this trail enters the Lee Metcalf Wilderness which is closed to bikes. Turn around at the boundary.

Description

The lower portion from the trailhead is doubletrack for nearly two miles until the creek crossing. From there to the junction with North Fork Tie #402 is flowing singletrack along the creek. Watch for hikers and horses along this trail in general. It's a popular day trip for many in the summer.
