Camp 5 Trailhead

The Camp 5 Motorized Trailhead is the most popular gateway to over 10 miles of rock-crawling, 4x4, and OHV routes in the Deadwood area. Many of these trails can be very challenging and test the limits of operators and machines. Several of the trails wind in and out of creek beds, through boulder fields, and up and down waterfalls as they navigate around steep canyons and pine forests. The trails south of the trailhead are popular with 4x4 clubs, rock-crawling enthusiasts, and adventure-seekers…
