Forest Service Road 372.1 is a rough dirt road around the south side of Gold Lake that serves many dispersed campsites in the area. The road starts out easy, with only a few spots of rough dirt and many campsites along the way. After about 1.25 miles, there is a notable water crossing that may be seasonal in nature and can be high enough to warrant needing a high clearance vehicle. Through and beyond the water crossing, the road difficulty increases to moderate with some protruding rock sections and muddy rutted sections for the last quarter of a mile to where the trail dead ends. Most of the area is wooded with pine and aspen trees, and camping is plentiful in the area.
The nearby Gold Lake is privately owned, and there is no public access. Please respect the private property boundaries in the area.
