Trailhead Status Updates

Most Recent Update 8/15/2026:

There is now a pair of permanent pit toilets that has been constructed in the middle of the lot. Currently they're clean and well stocked. Parking lot is still a dirt lot but accessible by pretty much any vehicle - just a couple potholes to navigate at the entrance. Notable amount of road noise from adjacent I-70. Overall lot is fairly dark at night except headlights flickering through trees ...
