Wicked Creek

Trail Overview

This trail begins with a steady climb into the mountains, crossing several cattle guards and a shallow stream that may be submerged depending on recent rainfall. Early on, the route passes through stretches of private land, but access becomes more open as elevation increases. The trail winds through dense, scenic forest and connects with numerous offshoots that invite further exploration. Although the road is generally well maintained, it remains rocky, uneven, and quite narrow in certain sections, requiring cautious driving, especially given its apparent popularity with local traffic. There are a few opportunities for dispersed camping, though amenities are not available and cell service is limited.
