The Rocky Mountaineers started work on this trail in 2022, and we are lucky enough to have them back! Trail 510 is overgrown and anything but clear. Once clear, trail 510 will provide a short but steep section up to Cedar Peak, and a long open ridge walk to Chilcoot Pass, ending at Siamese Lakes. It will be another great loop option from Clearwater Crossing!
This trip is rated as moderate to strenuous in difficulty.
**All volunteer trips are subject to change due to ever changing fire activity.
