2 Sandy-Caddy Creek Loop

Printable Trail Map

This trail is located on the northern portion of the Cedar City Ranger District, includes over 22 miles of trail (not including spurs), and sees few visitors. The eastern side of the trail is located in the lower elevation sagebrush region and gains elevation as you head west up into the forest. This trail is pretty thin in spots making it nearly impassible to full sized vehicles. It follows three-mile Creek for a while then it climbs out of the canyon bottom, over the ridge top and descends to Sandy Creek. This trail passes the Bear Valley Guard Station and then ties into Trail 1.

This trail contains a number of spur routes, including:

21 Sandy Creek
This spur is about 3 miles long and connects the northern portion of the trail to the eastern boundary of the Cedar City Ranger District.

22 Three-Mile Creek
This is another approximately 3 mile segment that connects to the eastern boundary of the District. This spur route is about 4 ½ miles farther down the trail from the Sandy Creek junction.

23 Five-Mile Hollow
This 2 mile spur connects the main trail to the eastern boundary of the District about 3 miles due west of the town of Panguitch. This spur takes off the main trail about 2.5 miles down the trail from the Three-Mile Creek junction.

24 Panguitch Creek
This spur is just under 8 miles long and connects the Five-Mile Hollow spur to the Pole Hollow spur (Trail 25) of this trail system.

25 Pole Hollow
This is a 4 mile long spur that connects to the Panguitch Creek spur, and continues on farther south to connect to Highway 143 about 5 miles (as the crow files) northeast of Panguitch Lake.
