2025 TD News September

We carried out our adopted trail and campground maintenance this past month. Starting with the Pole Creek OHV trail, we cleared out six fallen trees and trimmed encroaching brush. The north end of the trail is closed due to timber sale work through next year, so it is an out and back trek for now. This beautiful trail is open until November 1st and is suitable for short wheelbase, high clearance 4x4 vehicles like Jeeps Wranglers, Toyota FJs, and Ford Broncos. By parking at the ridge below the peak, it is a 1-½ mile hike up to Tinker Knob.
We did our annual maintenance of the Miller Lake Campground on the east end of the Rubicon. Afterwards we drove up to Sourdough Hill to enjoy the gorgeous views of Desolation Wilderness and nearby lakes. This trail is not hard like further in on the Rubicon and is well worth a visit.
