Trail Overview

This short trail will take you along the Lost Creek Forest Service Road terminating at Salsbury Lake Recreation Site. The trail is well maintained for the majority of the trip, with some sections prone to large potholes. Expect loose rocks and steep sections throughout the trail with multiple water crossings on the way to Salisbury Lake; the water crossings are not more than 10-12 inches deep under normal circumstances. A 4x4 vehicle is required; stock rigs are very capable of traversing this route. The trail ends at Salisbury Lake, where there is space for setting up camp and enjoying the lake.
