Smith Etter Road - Lost Coast

[ksuttle]

Does anyone know anything about Smith Etter Road on the Lost Coast? It appears in Gaia as a spur off of Mattole road just after Honeydew Green Bridge on the way to A.W. Way Campground. On the published maps on this site for the Lost Coast it seems to be a high clearance road that gets to Kinsey Ridge Trailhead and a scenic viewpoint.

High clearance aka any stock vehicle with 4x4 should be fine

Make sure you download the latest version of the gpx file. The old version cuts through private property and is gated (trust me, you don't want to go exploring on private property up that way!).

Thanks. I’ll make sure I got the latest. I think I downloaded it about 3 weeks ago.

Just found the trail status forum. I’ll check there first from now on before posting silly questions
