Description
Trail is on a ridge of little more than sage and rock formations with a spectacular view of distant mountain peaks in the Lost River Mountain Range. The rock formations are very colorful and the rock hound will be interested to note that agate is known to be scattered in various locations along the trail. Beaver are sometimes observed at Dry Creek along the lower portion of the trail as well as elk, deer, and gophers in the upper portion.
