Just to Clarify, this is the 16N74 Rd. All the signs and USFS maps use this number.

Should of read review below first, several hike a bike sections and I took the wrong turn at the viewpoint. A few walk sections but was actually more ridable but steep, loose and one nuts drop off a log if you got big cahones & shocks

Trail Mount Watson Boulevard
This is an actual paved road, unlike Sawtooth Rd, which connects to it

While this trail is definitely bi-directional, I always plan my ride to do this section as a descent. It is short, but really sweet!

Local bike shop person wasn’t a huge fan but I enjoyed the forest cruise and partial lake views.
