Mineral Creek Trail

Mineral Creek Trail is a scenic drive/hike. Follow the gravel road at the end of Mineral Creek Drive for 5.5 miles to reach the parking area and trailhead. A 4×4 is needed to drive all the way to the parking area, but it can be easily hiked. The trail from the parking area leads 0.8 miles to the old W.L. Smith Stamp Mill built in 1913 and used in conjunction with the Mountain King Mine. Halfway to the parking area there is a short side road that leads to the McIntosh Roadhouse ruins (circa 1912).
