The Plumley-Maud Trail is a all-season multi-use trail that runs between Maud Road on the north and Plumley Road on the south. The trail was originally built by loggers to access logging areas near Burnt Butte, so there are several small trails connecting to the main trail. The trail can connect to the Morgan Horse Trail access on Maud Road. The area is wooded with stands of birch, spruce and cottonwood. The trail passes close by residential areas, so please respect private property. .
