Land Owner
This is a multi-use trail. Popular with OHV users and Mountain Bikers.
The trail climbs out of the Lewis River Valley through a mature forest and intersects with Cussed Hollow Trail #19 about a mile from the trailhead. Continue on and cross the headwater of Copper Creek is via a bridge with a campsite nearby. A short distance upslope, the trail passes into a young tree plantation. You will pass through another plantation before crossing Forest Road 93.
Cross Forest Road 93 and travel one mile to the intersection of Forest Road 9327- 040 and Forest Road 9327. This is also the beginning of Craggy Peak Trail #3. Further along the trail travels along Wright Meadow where elk can often be seen grazing.
The trail crosses Forest Road 9327 again before starting its descent to Clear Creek. A ford allows you to cross Clear Creek before ascending to a bench. The trail then drops to Elk Creek before climbing to Forest Road 2259-101.

Dusty but rolling nicely. Warning: in addition to a NW Trails Pass, you have to have an advanced reservation as well or you will get turned away from the trail heads. Reservations can be obtained at recreation.gov. no internet within 30 min of trailhead, so no way to make or try to make a reservation. Lots of folks were getting turned away. Nicely... guaranteed parking and fewer idiots at the falls.
