Getting there
Previously, road access was washed out in several spots and the trail was inaccessible. The road was repaired in summer 2018 for logging activity beyond the trailhead. Logging is scheduled for summer 2019 beyond this recreation site.
From the junction of Highway 95 and Highway 1 in Golden, drive west on the Trans Canada Highway for 11.6 km to Moberly Branch Road. Go up the hill 1.9 km to a T, and turn left on Golden Donald Upper Road.
After 0.9 km, bear right on to Oberg Johnson Road, and follow it 1.9 km to the end, where it forms a T. Turn left on Moberly School Road and follow it for 0.5 km until it curves to the right and becomes Blaeberry Road. Follow Blaeberry Road for 6.5 km, until you see a sign on the right that says M Road. In 0.2 km, there will be a bridge crossing the river on your left. DO NOT take the bridge over the Blaeberry River, but continue along the road past the rustic campground (known locally as the IOOB campground). Set your odometer to 0 at the IOOB campground.
From the IOOB campground continue following the M Forest Service Road. The M FSR replaces the Blaeberry FSR and you will encounter new road construction but the access is in good condition. A high clearance vehicle is recommended but not necessary.
5.3 km you will pass the turnoff into Thompson Falls.
10 km, proceed straight. Do not cross the Blaeberry River.
12 km you will pass the Split Creek Recreation Site picnic area.
15.5km turn left and cross the Blaeberry River.
32.5 km look for (lots of) flagging marking the entrance of the trail. Park here out of the way.
