C-Line

C-Line cuts across the middle of Capitol State Forest on a well-maintained gravel road with patches of pavement. Suitable for all vehicles, you'll find forested corridors and expansive views both as you traverse East or West across the forest. The road has several points of interest along the route, bisecting several hiking trails, Waddell Basin West, Greenline, Wedekind, Crestline, and Porter, as well as one sanctioned target shooting pit, and a turn off on C-6000 for a 2-mile drive down to Fall Creek Campground.

Capitol State Forest can have active logging operations, so be sure to pay attention and watch for heavy machinery and trucks while exploring the forest. There is no dispersed camping allowed in Capitol State Forest; the only camping permitted within the forest is in official campgrounds, so please ensure that you have a plan for that if you need a place to stay for the night.

Capitol State Forest is an 11,000-acre forest packed with roads and trails and specific opportunities for recreational purposes. Please see https://www.dnr.wa.gov/Capitol for up-to-date info and closures relating to this location and any restrictions on activities.
