View from Crooked Creek Trail
FR 139 is an easy, maintained road that is suitable for cars in dry conditions.
It travels through spruce and pine forest, initially beside Keyser Creek.
Beautiful small yellow flowers!
This trail is the backbone for numerous
trails in the area. In dry conditions, most are only moderately difficult.
There are many good backcountry camping spots that are well utilized in
hunting season.
