The Sitkum Sol Duc Connector road goes between the Sitkum Sol Duc Road (FS29) and the South Fork Sol Duc Road. Starting at FS29, it traverses a ridgeline for a few miles before cutting over and running along the side of the mountain for a bit. About 4 miles from FS29, there's a severe landslide at the moment with a significant drop down the mountain if you don't make it. Take this section seriously and plan your approach across it. 4WD would be required at a minimum for this, and a narrow vehicle and/or short wheelbase would have an easier time due to the layout of the rocks

Aside from the landslide, the road surface is mostly gravel and in reasonably good condition. Traffic on this route isn't enough to keep the brush at bay, so be prepared for pinstripes or a bit of work with some cutting tools to widen the path enough for your vehicle.

Camping is mostly non-existent on the road, though there are a couple of pull-off spots that might do in a pinch if you're looking for a spot or really like the view.
