Links: | Fairview Creek Trail Mineral Camp Campground Trip Journal - 7/1/10 |
Notes: | Here is a little creek side trail that is mostly unknown and way underrated. Head here on a hot day and enjoy the deep shade of towering trees of spruce, fir, and cedar, and enjoy babbling Fairview Creek. It's just under three miles until the trail is lost, which makes a good turn around point. |
