Scatter Creek Trail #1328
The Scatter Creek Trail begins at Forest Road 4330 and ends at Fish Eagle Pass. This trail accesses the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Area.
Trail heads east from the trailhead, climbs steadily with numerous switchbacks, following the south side of Scatter Creek. Past the junction with County Line Trail 1226.2, it goes through several large meadows and into the upper basin of Scatter Creek and to its end at Fish Eagle Pass on the county divide. The trail can be difficult to find in the upper reaches of the basin. For the last half mile up to the pass, there are some extremely steep and rocky sections which may be impassable to stock.
