This is a very popular hiking trail, but you can also bike it. (Travel is allowed in both directions). The remote location and heavy forest makes unexpected wildlife encounters quite possible, so make sure you're prepared to handle bear, moose, and other wildlife encounters.

In the winter, you might swap your usual mountain bike out for a fat tire bike or a set of skis.
