    The navigation in this area can be a challenge if you’re unfamiliar. While the signage is average, the trails can be somewhat easy to lose. Bring a GPS track or map if you’re wanting a bit of help staying on the route.

    From the trailhead, take Chuck Wagon Trail. There are two main trails that leave from this trailhead, so don’t get onto Dry Creek Road by accident.
