West Dyer Trail #885
The West Dyer Trail #885 begins at an intersection with the Dyer Connection Trail #886 and ends at an intersection with the Mendicant Trail #884. The trail follows the West Dyer drainage from Mendicant Ridge to its confluence with North Dyer Creek. It can be difficult to follow at times but is never far from West Dyer Creek so if lost it can be found again without much difficulty. At one point in the trail there is a rock outcropping that must be crossed. This trail is mainly used by big game hunters during the fall hunting seasons.
