This trail is best between June and September due to snow. Be alert for thunderstorms, as much of this trail is open meadow with no cover.

Description

Forest Road #434 is drivable for the first portion, however this will end at two vehicle gates, but there is ample room to park. There are two roads past the gates to the west and south. The Leigh Monument Out-and-Back follows the road uphill to the south, which is closed to vehicles but remains open for foot traffic. The portion of the road past the gate is easy travelling. About halfway past the gate, the road will become a doubletrack, but is still fairly easy to follow on foot.

This land is leased for cattle grazing, so keep alert to cattle on the road.
