Description

From the junction with the Skyline to the Sea Trail, climb through the redwoods, pass a connector to Gazos Creek Road, and then cross a log bridge. The trail descends, and you continue through a redwood grove with leaning trees - caused by the soil sliding downhill in earthquakes. The Creeping Forest Trail ends at an intersection with the Dool Trail.
