Do NOT do this trail alone. Directions from Hiway 14:

miles to the trailhead. There are restroom facilities as well as a

Plan a whole day. The trail will probably take at least 7 to
8 hours and could take much longer if you have vehicle
damage.
If you do have a break down and must leave the area on foot,
follow the road.
Do NOT try to bushwack. The terrain on either side of the
ridge is steep.
This
trail is rated "Difficult" in the Charles Wells Northern
book
