This road takes off from the south side of the ski area parking lot. Good road access to higher elevation rides once the snow melts. Single lane, steep dirt road with turnouts in spots.
A good place to park for shuttles is the first junction on the top of the ridge above Lost Trail Ski Area.

Parking, Restrooms, Water and Info are all available at the Lost Trail Pass Visitors Center below the Lost Trail Ski Area.
