Blue Jay Trail #149 is an old, overgrown logging road that traverses grassy hillsides, open meadows, forest, and huckleberry bushes. Ponderosa pine and Douglas fir are replaced by sub alpine fir and spruce as the 5 mile trail ascends the ridge. The trail crosses Blue Jay Creek and due to the rocky crossing, fording the creek may prove difficult. This trail provides access to the Ten Mile Ridge Trail #157. A loop-like trip of approximately 11.5 miles could be made using both trails. The trail begins at 4500 feet in elevation and ends at 7800 feet, when it intersects with Ten Mile Ridge Trail #157. The only water source is Blue Jay Creek at the lower end of the trail.
