About this trail
This historic entry describes the mining-country roads south of the Salmon River near Burgdorf, using Forest Road 318 as its main reference. Forest Service records identify that road as Carey Creek–Corduroy Creek Road, FS 50318, in Payette National Forest. The pin marks an approximate point on the designated road near Burgdorf; the original source coordinate was elsewhere in Idaho and is not used for navigation. Expect remote forest travel and changing road conditions. Carry the current Motor Vehicle Use Map, fuel, water and recovery supplies, and confirm conditions with the Forest Service. Use only designated routes, respect private property and active mining operations, and do not enter mine openings or restricted workings. This entry does not authorize every nearby side road or passage through to the river. The original photographs are historical images supplied for the area, including winter conditions.
