Comments: This trail utilizes, for the most part,
an old road system so the trail is quite wide. High points along
the trail is the Kaniksu Marsh, Priest River and Chipmunk Rapids.
Watch for moose, deer, and waterfowl that frequently use the marsh.
A long loop can be done utilizing road 2244A but be aware that
this road is open to vehicles.
