Merritt 07 is a 1.5-mile spur off Broad Gulch north of Silver City in the Black Hills. Open year-round to full-size vehicles, it’s primarily rough dirt with mild ruts and small embedded rock. Any stock SUV or pickup can handle the drive. For full-size rigs, Merritt 07 is an out-and-back, ending at a junction with a restricted-width trail (62" or less).
The corridor is lined with aspen, delivering vibrant fall color, and the surrounding hills are home to deer, turkey, and elk.
A few small clearings along the road allow dispersed camping, though there are no designated sites. Open fires are not allowed in Black Hills National Forest outside of established fire rings.
