Trail Overview

Located in Horse Creek Recreation Area. A delightful blend of creek walking, and forest walking to a great payoff of Squibb Creek Falls.

Route Description

Park where the paved road ends and pass the wholly uninformative sign. The key to a proper beginning is to take the bridge on the left, just past the creek viewing platform. You should only be on the unpaved portion of Horse Creek Road for about 500ft.

The hike mostly follows Squibb Creek upstream and therefore a mostly uphill hike to the falls. The average slope was recorded at 12.2% grade with a maximum grade of 62.5%.

Miles Up	Squibb Creek Falls	Miles Down	Elevation (ft)
0.0	Trailhead at Parking lot	2.6	1903

Fees, Permits, etc.

None needed, just park and go.
