About this campground
The Trail Creek Trail continues along a forested ridge from the intersection with the Wickersham Creek Trail at milepost 6. Within the first half mile is Lee's Cabin. The trail follows this ridge and climbs again for approximately 8 miles before descending into a large meadow near the intersection with the Moose Creek Trail. The trail then climbs and at approximately mile 10 is the Moose Creek Cabin. The trail continues and climbs another high ridge paralleling Trail Creek before descending again to Crowberry Cabin and further down to Beaver Creek. Trail Creek Trail then crosses Beaver Creek and traverses a series of open spruce forests to the Cache Mountain Cabin and the Cache Mountain Loop Trail.
