Enjoy this trail from high in the saddle. Take your horse on a slow trot through a tall, red pine forest over what was once a logging road and railroad grade at the turn of the century. Early loggers used a combination of horse drawn sleds and trains to haul timber from the woods. Once the snow falls, parts of this trail are used as a snowmobile route.
Directions: From Three Lakes, take State Highway 32 east 4 miles to Military Road (FR 2178). Turn left and go north 2 miles to Sheltered Valley Road (FR 2182). Turn right and go east 2 miles to (FR 3861B). Turn left into parking area where there is space for approximately 10 vehicles with horse trailers.
