Directions

From the west, go over Santiam Pass on U.S. 20. Just past Suttle Lake, take a hard left on Forest Road 12. Continue straight through the 4-way crossroads and veer right directly after that, continuing on FR 12. In 3.3 miles, continue straight on FR 1230. Half a mile later, at a large intersection near Jack Creek Campground, continue straight on FR 1234, following signs for Jack Lake. The trailhead is 7 miles further on; at some point, the road turns to dirt/gravel, but it's fairly wide and easily doable in any car.
