ThompsonRoadDirtD:

A. From Richfield, head south on Hwy 89 about 3 miles to the a town called 'Central'. Find your way to the middle of town. When you have come to the middle of town, there will be a park on the west side of the road and a tricky intersection. You make a kind of zigzag to continue going south on Main Street. This is the picture above.
B. After traveling south from the Central intersection about 1 1/2 miles, you will join a road following the foothills of Cove Mountain. This is called Landslide Road. Turn left.
C. The next turnoff comes a little quicker. When you pass two houses, the turnoff onto Thompson Basin Road is on the right.
D. Once you are on Thompson Basin Road, you will have a hard time not making it all the way to launch. When you see the radio towers, you know you are there.

Some pictures from Cove.
