Description
The Shan Creek Trail intersects Forest Road 056 just 2 miles from the trailhead. The remainder of what used to be a trail is now a gravel forest road. This trail is used mainly to access the swimming hole about 0.25 miles from the trailhead. This area was burned by the 2018 Taylor Creek fire and fallen trees are now an issue.
