Edged by rugged mountains, quiet forest and expansive wilderness, the small town of Sun Valley is both scenic and in winter a snow-sports hot spot thanks to the local stretch of groomed vertical feet.
At the start of this trail the visitor will note flat ground dotted with sagebrush. On the right is Corral Creek populated by beaver busily building their dams. After about 1 mile the terrain begins to include scattered fir trees and red shaded Cabin Mountain and Redbird Mountain come into view. At the head of Corral Creek the visitor can turn to the right and at the base of the two mountains will find Corral Lake. Continue over the top and find the head of Stewart Canyon and see limber pine and the White Mountain Range to the right. The trail down passes a small pond surrounded by meadows and continues to wind down through the limber pine to the old mining road. This area is populated not only by deer, but mountain lions and bears.
