Connecting Salmon Meadows and Meadows-Toats Road, NFD Road 3820 encompasses a portion of the WABDR as you head north toward Canada. This road has the glorious designation of being the highest portion of the WABDR as you cross Lone Frank Pass above 6,700 feet. The southern National Forest section of 3820 is nicely graveled, but at the change to the Loomis Natural Resources Conservation Area, it flips to dirt, gets rocky, and is slightly washed out. Along the drive, you will encounter several hiking trailheads, such as Tiffany Lake, Clark Ridge, and Honeymoon Pass.
Other than the official campground at the southeast end, there are no suitable camping locations along this road, so plan to continue straight through this short stint or stop early if your day gets long.
NFDR 3829 is a portion of section 6 (Conconully to Canada Border) of the Washington Backcountry Discovery Route (WABDR), a scenic 575-mile mostly offroad route from the Oregon state line to the Canadian border.
