“A well-shaded trail along a creek in aspen-fir forests. Provides connections to other trails.”

— Janice Shepherd
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Features: Fall Colors — River/Creek

Description

This trail provides a pleasant run through an aspen forest with lots of greenery. The sound of the creek running along adds to the beauty of the area.

At both the southern end and the northern end, the trail is sometimes hard to find because of the quick growing vegetation and the infrequent use.

This trail can be combined with others to make several different loops. This area does not get a lot of visitors so even running along a road can be quiet.
