Cougar Trailhead at the end
End-of-road mountain trailhead with high-desert and subalpine scenery: ridgelines, stands of aspens, meadows and distant peaks. Excellent for sunrise/sunset light, fall color, winter snow scenes and intimate nature studies. Road access is gravel; parking is limited at the trailhead — expect a short hike to best viewpoints. No permits for casual photography but check seasonal trail closures and wildlife advisories. Weekdays and early mornings reduce crowds and offer crisp light and low wind.
