The Red Cap Hole Trail is a singletrack dirt path that travels through recently partially burned old-growth forest in the western Trinity Alps, east of Hoopa. The trail passes through a diverse mix of plants and trees, including many kinds of fruits and berries. A short spur off the main trail leads to Lower Mill Creek Lake--a 5-acre lake located at 5,900 feet, with fishing opportunities and two semi-developed campsites.

Firs, pines, alders, chinquapin, wild cherries, thimbleberries, gooseberries, serviceberries, and roses.
