Driving Directions

From Prineville:

From the intersection of Highway 26 and Main Street in the middle of Prineville, turn right (south) onto Main Street (Highway 27) and drive 0.6 miles.

Then make a left onto S.E. Lynn Boulevard, and proceed 1.0 miles.

Turn right onto Combs Flat Road, which becomes the Paulina Highway (Road 380). Follow this road for 54.5 miles along the Crooked River into Paulina.

Continue east on Paulina-Suplee Road for 3.6 miles before bearing left on Beaver Creek Road, which becomes FR 42.

Go 7.4 miles, and then turn right onto FR 58 for the Sugar Creek Campground and Rager Ranger Station.

Go 1.3 miles, and turn left onto FR 5810 for the Boeing Field Trailhead.

Drive 10.8 miles to a high open saddle and park in the pullout on the left side of the road opposite the sign for the Boeing Field Trail #820A.

Alternate about the same distance and difficulty:

Take highway 26 through Prineville 46 miles to Mitchel.

Continue on highway 26 13 miles to FS 12 turn right.

Take FS 12 8 miles to FS 1250 turn left.

Take FS 1250 4 miles to FS 38 turn left.

Take FS 38 5 miles to FS 5810 turn right.

Take FS 5810 1 mile to Boeing Trailhead.

The first 5 miles of FS 12 is paved. Then gravel. The last few miles of FS 38 and FS 5810 are worse, potholes and washboarding. Possible with regular passenger vehicle but go slow.
