      Trail: Rodak Trail has hard packed soil. For easier, up hill slopes, access the trail from the Iditorod Trail at the 400 foot point. Grades are steeper when descending, while the return from the valley floor has gentler grades.

      All large roots and rocks have been removed from the trail, making it usable for most hikers, including families with small children, seniors, and disabled hikers.

      Platform: A viewing platform is accessed at 0.4 mile. The platform provides a panoramic vista of Beaver Lake and Eagle River Valley.

      Rest Stops: 0.0 mile, 0.35 mile, 0.4 mile, 0.54 mile, 0.6 mile.
