Mill Creek is a doubletrack access road that provides access to/from Middleton Powerline, Ice house and Broken Mesa, and Mustang Pass. The trail is often used for hiking because it can be very sandy especially when it hasn't rained for a long period of time. All of the sand can be pedaled through however, it will take some effort though. This trail is most fun heading south (downhill), especially past the Mill Creek TH.
