There are two trailheads to chose from, one in each end, so backcountry backpacking it one way is an option if you can arrange for a ride back. The time needed for this trek is roughly 6.5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. This backcountry hiking trail sometimes gets very dry, so do check for current fire restrictions before you go if you plan to bring a stove or make a camp fire. Being 7.6 miles long it's an average length hiking trail. North Fork Trail has a total elevation difference of 1,960 feet, and that is about average. Some parts of North Fork Trail are much higher up than other parts of the hiking trail, so keep in mind that you may need to dress differently at different elevations. North Fork Trail is quite long, so don't forget to pack enough supplies.
