Basic Directions
Trail begins 30 miles west of Bend, north of the Cascade Lakes Hwy at the Broken Top Trailhead on Forest Rd. 380. A high clearance vehicle is needed for travel beyond Todd Lake on the very rough Forest Rd. 370 (road remains gated closed until snow melts mid-summer). This trail can be reached more easily on foot via the Todd Ridge Trail and Soda Creek Trail (#11). Closed to mountain bikes.
