Middle Fork to Icehouse Saddle

Join us for a scenic and challenging hike from Lytle Creek to the Icehouse Saddle! It's roughly 10 miles with about 3,600 ft of elevation gain, this is the lesser used trail for getting to the Saddle.

The trailhead is located at the end of Middle Fork Road, which is about roughly two and a half miles of dirt road from town. I've seen road conditions good enough for a sedan and I've seen them rough enough to deter an all-wheel drive vehicle. I'll be scoping out road conditions a few days before the trip and report back what I find. I have a fairly capable vehicle and room to drive up to four individuals from the beginning of Middle Fork Rd to the trailhead if need be :)
