Trail Overview
This trail is steep, overgrown, and narrow. Typically home to lots of poison oak and fallen trees but the reward at the end is totally worth it! Keltz Mine road takes you down to the South Fork Stanislaus River and ends at a camping area. There are fish and swimming holes and slippery rocks so beware. In the winter months, this road is muddy and has large rocks, it is also subject to landslides so wide vehicles beware.
