The Chequamegon Area is heavily forested and sparsely populated. Throughout the region a network of well-maintained gravel roads links numerous small communities and provides connections between county and state highways. Among these roads is a system of numbered Forest Roads in the National Forest. Many of these roads are town roads and maintained by the respective townships. In as much as these roads comprise much of the local transportation grid, they see regular maintenance and are usually in very good condition.

Starting Point: CAMBA Cable Trailhead-Town of Cable Municipal Parking.

C3 – 31 miles with 1,700 feet of climbing including some long climbs. Short stretches on quiet pavement. Some of the gravel can be sandy and rough. Approaching Seeley you will ride a couple of miles on the railroad grade, which is also an ATV trail – please exercise caution.
