Blue Jay Trail

Summary


Blue Jay Trail - This trail begins on an old road but quickly narrows to a single-track trail. After following Blue Jay Creek for nearly a mile, the trail crosses a creek and begins a steep climb to a ridge. The trail follows the ridge for a number of miles. Ponderosa pine and Douglas-fir are replaced by subalpine fir and lodgepole pine as the trail ascends the ridge. The trail begins a long side-hill traverse before ending at the junction with the Ten Mile Ridge Trail. A partial loop for motorcyclists can be made by combining the Blue Jay Trail with the Ten Mile Ridge and Wapiti Trails. A full loop can be made by adding Forest Service Roads 524 and 525 as well as a portion of State Highway 21, if riders are properly licensed and their motorcycles meet applicable state requirements.
