The trail parallels the Mountain Loop Highway winding its way along the Sauk River traveling past old cedar stumps, surrounded by mossy vegetation. The hike is great for younger Scouts and families as it does not gain much elevation.

Directions: From Darrington take the Mountain Loop Highway south along the west side of the Sauk River for 4 miles going past the Clear Creek Campground. The trailhead is on the left.
