Douglas Trailhead

The Douglas Trailhead on Wildcat Mountain provides access to Douglas Trail going west to Eagle Creek and going east towards Wildcat Mountain Trail and McIntyre Ridge Trail.  Views near the trailhead and farther in at the old lookout on Wildcat Mountain, provide outstanding views of the Salmon-Huckleberry Wilderness.  This is a less visited trail so solitude is easier to find. Provides access to: Douglas Trail #781 which enters Salmon Huckleberry Wilderness.
