Overview
The Elk Creek Trail is an easy route that follows an old logging road (West Fork Elk Creek Road) that gradually but relentlessly ascends the west and north slopes of Elk Mountain . It's a good hike for winter months when the snow levels are above 2,000 feet. For about half the distance, you will be above Elk Creek and then the West Fork Elk Creek before the track begins switchbacking up in earnest. The lush secondary forest here also supports a rich array of wildflowers in the spring.
