Bear Gulch Trail in Ashton, ID

[Coco]

Anyone got some good information on it? Going up there for the weekend, and want to ride that trail. My Grandpa said it is an absolute beautiful trail. It is on the old railroad from what he told me. I am doing some Google searching, but not having the best luck. I need GPS coordinates, start points, detours for the old ghost towns, etc. We are trying to plan it out to where we can get dropped at Ashton, and ride either to my extended families cabin, in Island Park or into West Yellowstone itself. But we are trying to find all the outlets, starting, ending locations, and the detours that lead to old abandoned gas stations, and towns.

Anyone that has any information post up if you could

old abandoned gas stations, and towns.

That sounds interesting.

If we end up finding out enough information to find our way around, and run it, I will be sure to take lots of pics, and get some video hope to do a good report on it like Steve always does. I really enjoy his write ups.

I am checking with my riding group. They ride a lot of trails, even in Idaho.

Try Googling "Warm River Trail".

I cant seem to find a damn thing on Google. Came across a good trip report on www.ADVrider.com but still no GPS coordinates, or anything or that nature.

It sounds like you want a motorized vehicle USFS map for Targhee National Forest. This will break out all the roads, single track, ATV, and open riding areas on a very large map. GPS waypoints won't be needed in that type of terrain. Everything legal will have the typical USFS road signage at the intersections. http://www.fs.usda.gov/main/ctnf/maps-pubs

Contact Snake River 4x4 they seem to know where its at. With the Description I could probably map it in NG Topo.

They probably know a whole lot more trails as well.

Let us know what you find, I have relatives in Rexburg so that would be just a stones throw away.

You guys are awesome I am thinking we will stop and get a map for sure, but I am hoping we can get it all sorted out, and I will do up a trip report if we end up making it with all the info and such.

I will do some more searching!
