Trail Overview

Rough dirt and rock road accessing Alder Springs Trailhead and Wychus Creek. This road passes through a seasonal gate (and then through a private land easement) to access a section of the Crooked River National Grasslands, which is closed seasonally to protect large game winter range. Additional details on the Alder Springs trail (and general access ) are here: https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/ochoco/recarea/?recid=38278
