Poison Creek Trail

The two mile long Poison Creek Trail ambles through mountain meadows before descending steeply to Poison Creek. The first part of the trail provides spectacular views of the Bighorn Mountains and the valley below. Hikers who make it to the end are rewarded with a secluded spot along the Poison Creek. Backcountry camping is allowed in the recreation area.
