Yellow Pine Creek


We decided to do the  Yellow Pine Creek Trail again.  It was such a nice hike last weekend and we wanted to get to the end of the trail.  We made it up 4.5 miles to a great meadow where a number of creeks flow into Yellow Pine Creek.  A faint trail kept going in a northeasterly direction, but we decided to call it good.  Still managed to get caught in a thunder and rain storm on the way down.  Should have started earlier in the day.  But it was still a gorgeous hike.  And a nice time to try out our rain gear.

Trailhead Elevation:  7,070 feet
Highest Elevation:  9,235 feet
Total Elevation Gain:  2,444 feet
Total Distance:  9 miles
Total Time:  5 hours
