Horse Creek Lower Section

Trail Overview

The trail picks up from the campground area and water access. It winds through a beautiful Canyon with massive rock features and a mostly burned-out forest with some sections of dense pines closer to the end. It ends at a Locked gate and private ranch with plenty of room to turn around. Keep an eye out for the outfitter camp and horses on the trail or near the end. No Verizon cellular service in the area. There are a few dispersed campsites as you get closer to the end. You may see elk and deer; the Rancher at the end of the trail reported wolves in the area.

Difficulty

Easy with muddy potholes and will not be maintained during the winter.
