Medicine Mountain Trail

This dead end route from Bridge Creek Trail at Cedar Flat to the top of Medicine Mountain has been allowed to revert to a very primitive status. There is one exception. The first tenth of a mile of the trail, crossing Bridge Creek to a good campsite, has been maintained to a good standard. However, there is at least one large log down on this piece of the trail. Hikers and stock can get over or around it. From the campsite onward, the trail is not advised for stock. There are a number of down logs. Finding the route is difficult in places, particularly at one point high on Medicine Mountain where the trail has completely disappeared due to the effects of a past blowdown and a subsequent intense fire. Those who know the route will be able to get through, though. Much of the trail is moderately brushy. Exact current conditions following the winters of 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 are unknown.
