From the lower trailhead, Cliff Point Trail (436) climbs a sidehill through a series of three switchbacks for 2.5 miles to Cliff Point, then follows the ridgeline between Little North Fork/Big Creek and Gold Creek drainages to the upper trailhead on Road 751.

Due to mountain pine beetles, dead trees are falling; therefore, it is not recommended the trail be used on windy days.
