Trail Overview
Starting at the Deep Creek trailhead in the Little Belt Mountains, take the North Fork Deep Creek trail. About 1.5 miles in, you will run into a small section of double track for 2 to 3 miles. Then you will take the Old Baldy trail off of the double track. This trail is marked and should be easy to follow. Keep on Old Baldy Trail for several miles until you hit another fork in the trail. Keep on the Smith River trail. Again, the trail is marked and should be easy to follow. Keep on the Smith River Trail, and you will come up to a large meadow with a gate. Once you reach this large meadow, the trail is hard to find, but there is a wooden trail marker is past the gate, towards the tree line. Picture included. Then follow the rest of the trail to Smith River. Enjoy and close all gates behind you.
