This hike follows an old unmaintained road bed that extends southeast past Park Tank from the present day end of FR2752 at Park Tank. Part of this road is shown on old maps but not on newer topo maps. I was curious about what, if anything, was at the end of this road. We found that there was a fork in the road about 0.3 miles past the gate at park tank. One fork continues straight southeast about 0.6 miles further to where it ends at Trail 55 coming from its Circle Ranch trailhead. The other fork of the road turns to the southwest to cross upper Park Creek, then northwest and then south more-or-less going up a drainage ending after 1.3 miles in a forest with nothing much of interest to anyone except maybe hunters and the usual range cattle. So no exciting finds or views, just dense forest. However the connection with Trail 55 could be of interest but it could confuse anyone trying to follow that trail without a gps track because there are no signs, just GH's beloved cairns to mark where the trail enters and leaves the road.
