Magruder Corridor, Mt.

Just did it in August, for the 4th time. Had some damage from some flash flooding to the east of Magruder cabin, which if you would like a nice base camp with shower and beds is reserveable on the Fed site. Any side trips are cherry stemmed off the main road at Hell's Half Acre lookout and Burnt Knob lookout. You can also go up the Selway river to Paradise C.G. with several small camp sites next to the river on that road. Also Magruder Crossing, which is right at the Selway turn off has some nice spots. Only C.G. with water after that as you head west is Poet Creek, but there are several nice spots with toilets, just no creek or river close by. Elk City on the other end has gas, laundry, grocery store, and cafes. There were quite a few fires late August after we went thru, around Red River Lodge, Elk City, and the Selway, so can't speak to the scenery of the condition of the road after this winter (mud slides and tree falls), but if you are later in the season, those should be cleaned up. We actually did a loop of 800 miles this year, starting and ending in Cascade, Id, that was atv friendly with only about 25 miles of pavement, the rest dirt. Took 8 days with not too rapid a pace. You do need Idaho street legal plate, which out of state atv's can purchase at the court house in most towns in Idaho. Cost is less than 25$ and allows you on county roads, no state highways. We found out alot of the dirt roads in the forest are actually county roads, but got only warnings and took care of the plate when we got to a town. It's no problem with AZ or other state street legal plates and insurance.
