South Kelsey Trail

Overview

If you want a taste of the historic and remote Kelsey Trail any time of year, the first couple miles of the western side of the trail is how you can sample it. The creek(s) and crossings are too deep to pass during spring, but this little taste can give you a nice sample of the trail.<br><br>The Kelsey Trail from this starting point goes much further into the Klamath National Forest, so depending on the time of year this can be your starting point for a huge and remote excursion, or can simply be this, a good out-and-back to a lovely creek.
