Near the northern end of Skyline Drive is Bennion Ridge, a packed dirt trail running atop its namesake ridge. The trail is relatively easy, but the snow and mud hold late into spring, causing deeper rutting due to its shaded nature. 4WD is likely not needed, but high clearance will help with a few of the exposed rocks that poke through the dirt. Overgrowth is also common on this lesser-used spur, so expect pinstriping. The trail terminates at a small turnaround with impressive views of the surrounding valleys. Camping is found in very few locations, often taken by the sheepherders.
