Description

This trail departs from Deer Creek Campground and climbs steadily into the popular Greenhorn System. The area is mostly wooded and hikers will find cooler temps near the creek. Navigating is very straightforward thanks to easy signage and no junctions until the Red Warrior Trail.

The trail was reconditioned by the Ketchum Ranger District after the 2013 Beaver Creek fire.
