Trail Overview

Culver Creek, County Road 14A, branches off Dexter Creek, County Road 14. The first part of the road is graded gravel to a parking area where you can park and hike. From there, the road changes to a rutted road with some rocks and stream crossings. It leads to a beautiful meadow, referred to as Thistle Park, with some primitive camping spots. Most of the road is narrow, with few pull-offs. Be aware that there is a horse stable that uses the road for horseback rides. You will need to keep an eye out for them and accommodate them.

Difficulty

The road is narrow, with few pull-offs to allow for passing vehicles or horses. Some are shelf areas with drop-offs. There are a few stream crossings. The horseback riding groups can be a hazard to watch out for. You may meet them coming towards you or have to wait and pace with them preceding you on the trail.

Trail was good to the top, overgrown but good. Gets a little narrow towards the top but that’s why I have a full size truck.
