Hiking Mill Gulch Trail

This trail is open to off-road vehicles and hikers. It begins in the forest, a short drive east of the town of Cle Elum. From the trailhead with a sign marked #4W326, follow the rough road as it rolls on an up-and-down course to its intersection with another forest road. Jump this road and continue on the trail as it climbs up toward the ridge.

At the ridge, you will encounter a fork in the trail. Take a right for a more level trail or head left for a steeper section. Both forks explore the ridge. If you go left, you'll eventually come to a dead end, while the right fork loops back to connect with Forest Road 115, heading back down to the trailhead. With several intersecting forest roads and trails, a map will be handy in keeping track of all the turns and junctions.
