Gold Creek Road, also known as FS-1702, is a primitive dirt road that travels north into the Manastash trail system. The beginning has a "Bridge-out / Road Closed in 2 miles" sign. However, a 4x4 trail cuts into the ravine taking you down and around the washout. Any 4x4 vehicle will be comfortable on this detour. The trail climbs to 5400 feet and connects with FS-1721/1722. The views along Gold Creek Road are spectacular. There are many off-shoot roads that provide primitive camping and lookouts.
