Trail Overview

Along the dark, desolate, and often foggy Elkins Creek Road sits a hidden gem that is well worth checking out. This deeply rutted, loose-gravel road has several washed-out sections, while Paddle Creek runs alongside it and may flood. Stay straight on Elkins Creek Road, cross the bridge over the small creek, and continue until the road ends at Paddle Creek Forest and the free dispersed horse camp.
