Trail Overview

Starting right at the trailhead, this is the main trail in the Ruby Creek/Mt. Margaret trail system. It is a relatively easy, two-track trail with some ruts, potholes, and washes but overall is a very easy trail to build loops from and access the other trails in the area. There are several signs along the way to help guide you to the loops and side trails that branch off of Ruby Creek.

Difficulty

This trail is relatively easy; it has some ruts and washouts but would be easy for really any skill level. The surface starts as gravel but turns to primarily dirt and rock as you work your way through.
