Raggeds #820

The Raggeds Trail #820 begins at the end of Forest Service Road 795, Munsey Creek Road, and ends at FSR 898, Ragged Mountain Road. The southern portion of the trail is managed for ATV and motorcycles whereas the northern portion is managed non-motorized use. The trail climbs through dense aspen trees and scattered oak brush, crossing Deep Creek (dangerous in late spring) to Williams Creek Reservoir. From here, the route is a gradual ascent and descent until it climbs steeply out of Buck Creek and follows roads through private land.  The Raggeds Trail #820 is little used for its entire length, with the heaviest use on the southern portion from fishermen and day hikers into Williams Creek and Tomahawk reservoirs. Good views of the Raggeds, Buck Basin and Chair Mountain exist along the upper portion of the route. There are over 20 sources of water along the way. Dispersed camping is prevalent everywhere. The major problem exists while crossing 2 miles of private property on roads which can be confusing. (Be observant of signs.)  The Raggeds tie-in Trail #823 intersects the Raggeds Trail where ATV travel ends.  Trail #823 is a short segment of trail that ties the Raggeds Trail with BLM land to the west.
