Salt Fork Creek Section 3

Trail Overview

Salt Fork Section Creek 3 trail follows along the historic fork of the Salt Fork, part of the Red River, that carved the Palo Duro Canyon. Section 3 is the grown-up angry older brother of 1 and 2. This section is a black level and recommends an experienced driver, excellent spotters, and 35-inch tires. This section has large boulders to navigate and without armor expect some body damage. There are bypasses to some of the larger obstacles but these are challenging as well. This trail does run in the creek along the canyon walls, also making it excellent for pictures.
