Mineral Basin Trail #194 is a fun 4-wheeler trail for 4-wheeler riders of every skill level. The trail head is approx 3.3 miles up the Mineral Basin main trail. The first part of the trail requires you to navigate your 4-wheeler through a stream, if you have not done this or you aren't sure how to do it, make sure you have someone along for your 4-wheeler ride that knows how to properly maneuver your 4-wheeler through the water. There's no reason to ever be unsafe on your 4-wheeler.
The 4-wheeler trail is approx 3 miles and works its way up to a beautiful little lake called Forest Lake. Forest Lake also marks the end of the 4-wheeler trail. You may camp out by this area for up to 6 days. There are no fish in the lake but it is very scenic. As far as wildlife, you will see plenty, especially if you are riding your 4-wheeler in the early morning or early evening, you can expect to see plenty of deer and elk.
The first mile of this 4-wheeler trail is very rough with large boulders and very deep ruts and makes for a very fun 4-wheeler ride if you have experience roaming your machine over these types of terrain. If you're a newer or inexperienced 4-wheeler rider, make sure you have someone to show you proper ascent and descent techniques so you can navigate these areas on your 4-wheeler safely. When you get through the lower part of the trail the rest is still very rocky but it only has a few sections with deep ruts that may be a little challenging on your 4-wheeler but still very easy to navigate.
