Smith and Morehouse ATV Trailhead

Trail head to Smith and Morehouse ATV trail

This was labeled Trail 030 on the post just past the yellow sign. The trail ascends through pines and aspen and parallels Red Pine Creek, then climbs to Mud Lake Flat and Shingle Mill Flat. We turned around after we went approximately 7 miles and we hadn't come to the end of the trail. It is quite rocky in many places. It is rated "moderate." Some places are difficult.

Another trail, no. 909 leaves trail 030 about 2 3/4 miles from the trail-head.  It goes to the southwest and is about 3/4 mile long, also coming to a dead end.

July 29 Visit to Strawberry Reservoir - Chicken Creek

This time on our visit to Strawberry, we took our ATVs and parked at the trail head to Chicken Creek, about a mile east of the Strawberry Reservoir Visitor Center on Highway 40. (See "Strawberry Trail Map" posted below.) We followed Trail 245 approximately 7.5 miles through thick groves of quaking aspens and lush high altitude meadows until it ended at Road 082. It was a very beautiful ride.
