Features Birding · Fall Colors · River/Creek · Views · Wildlife

There are several stream crossings on logs and rocks. The water can be pretty high in the spring during the snowmelt, but all are generally easy to cross without getting wet.

From the USFS campground, head uphill on the good singletrack. The trail climbs the drainage that is called Holy Ghost Creek. You'll cross grassy meadows, find your way through thicker willow copse and finally climb up to open Ponderosa forest. As you scamper along the trail, which is mostly dirt and pine duff with some rocky sections, you'll see the higher mountains towering above peeking through the trees.
