About North Fork Road (Swan River) TH #354
Approximately 3.3 miles from the beginning of the North Fork Road you will come to the ruins of the old mining camp of Rexford, just past Garibaldi Gulch. The North Fork Road leads you through thick areas of lodgepole pine and several clear cut areas. The road does eventually come to a dead-end so be prepared to turn-around and follow your same route back down.
