Exploring the Upper Road on the Grizzly Flat / North Trail
Came out on foot to check out an old road I saw near the top of the Grizzly Flat / North Trail in Upper Stevens Creek County Park. Wanted to see where it went and if it may have connected down to the end of the 1895 road at the end of Stevens Creek Branch D.
This old road didn't go very far down the canyon, in fact is ends a few hundred feet vertically below the modern trail head. Not sure the purpose of this road, there's a platform that was built at the end. If it was a log skidding operation, it must have been a chore to back log trucks down the narrow road since there's no place to turn a truck around at the end. This road doesn't appear on any maps. It looks like it may been constructed around the same time as the Grizzly Flat road. Grizzly Flat North Road first appears on the 1961 USGS topo map.
