Description

This is a beautiful trail, going by some historic sites. Smith Ditch (1/4 mile) was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps for irrigation and water in the 1930’s, and Gibson Cave (1 ¼ mile). From Little Bald Mountain, the view is great to the north and south. The north looks into the low range lands toward Butter Creek country, and the south looks into the Texas and Madison areas. Smith Ditch and Gibson Cave are exciting attractions to look around in.

You can make a complete loop of about 7 ½ miles by following this route. From Bald Mountain Trail No. 3058, you can follow the Hells Half Acre Trail No. 3062, for another 2 ½ miles to Cutsforth Park. Then take the Willow Creek Trail No. 3063 for 2 ½ miles up Willow Creek back to the Coalmine Day Use Area.

This trail is open to hiking and horseback riding. The trail is marked with blaze signs and is steep in some areas.
