Trailhead
WTA Pro Tip: Save a copy of our directions before you leave! App-based driving directions aren't always accurate and data connections may be unreliable as you drive to the trailhead.
Head out to Highway 410, then make a left on Highway 165, just before entering the Carbon Glacier entrance to the park turn left onto NF-7810. NF-7810 is a bridge that crosses the Carbon River.
Head up the gravel road for about 3.5 miles. Park to the side of NF-7810 near NF-7840. Trail begins on the left side of the road heading up.
