The Bailey Creek trail is 9 miles long (one-way), and travels across the watershed divide to scenic Bailey Lake then continues down to the Snake River. Its source to the Snake River is designated as a national Wild and Scenic River. The trailhead for the Bailey Creek trail offers several areas for dispersed camping as well as plenty of parking. Alternatively, access by fording or boating the Snake River from the Elbow is also possible late in the season.
