The trail follows FS roads, mostly good gravel tread, although the 2 mi. of Star Meadows RD is paved. Note: there is a .4 mi. bushwack from the end of FS2956 to the closest point on FS2848. This unmarked link is downhill through dense regrowth and shouldn't be attempted without GPS navigation. The best direction for the loop is clockwise, starting south along Tally Lake to the Junction with Mountain Meadows Road. Courtesy of Singletracks.com

Never modify trail features. Ride trails when they're dry enough that you won't leave ruts. Speak up when you see others on the trail and always yield to hikers, horses, and others coming uphill. Always ride on the established trail.
