Description

The trail starts off of Divide road, at a sign marking Clear Creek Trail. You'll pass a fence and continue on for another 1/4 miler until you reach a gate. After the gate, the trail weaves and climbs a bit before dropping a few hundred feet down the loose descent.

There is a nice view of the plateau from the west end of the trail. The trail then roughly follows that contour back east for a few miles. The trail is a little beaten up in spots, but there are some very nice sections.

The hike finishes with a climb back up a ravine along Clear Creek, past a couple of gates, to Divide Rd and your vehicle.
