Sherman parking along the road

Post by sakurai123 »

Planning to climb Mt. Sherman via Iowa Gulch in a few weeks.

Is there parking close to the end of the paved road (which, as I understand, is also the winter trailhead?).

Will be traveling with a rental car that does not allow travel on unpaved roads ...

If you are a little brave, I seem to remember the first mile or so of the unpaved road being very, very tame.
