Directions
Depart civilization at Laver Crossing north of
Doyle, 2 miles from the north end of the Doyle loop and almost a
mile north of the Shell station
Turn towards the mountains right where
the passing lane starts going north
There will be signs but only after you
make the turn
A mile and a half down Laver it T's into
Hackstaff and the paved road is left behind- turn right (south)
Hackstaff is 40 mph gravel. Look for Fort
Sage Road a mile ahead.
Fort Sage Road is well marked from both
directions on Hackstaff - one of two pre-emptive signs on this
route. nice wide roads and plenty of room to make the turn
One mile on 15 mph gravel - watch for
hidden washboard!
Again - after the turn you get
confirmation you made the right choice - look for the turn off
Fort Sage Road in one mile to the trailhead
About a mile and a half off Fort Sage
Road is the trailhead. Some grade, some sand maybe a 10 mph
road.";
