Trail.
Just can't get enough of the Northern Sierra Nevada. Get your heart pumping on the nice whitewater of Fordyce Creek, and hey, Texas Creek is a magnificent local stream. Lindsey Creek is a pleasant place to pop by, and if you crave a little side trip, try Poison Canyon.
Willow Spring is a great local attraction, and if you came for an overnight stay Lindsey Campground is a wonderful location to camp.
This place, Canyon Creek Trail, it truly has so much outdoors entertaining stuff. Canyon Creek Trail is a spot with many visitors from Truckee-Grass
Valley; a trip to Erie Point is always a wonderful idea. A magnificent location like Murphy Flat here at Canyon Creek Trail is too great to miss, and Black Oak Spring is a delightful location to have a look at while you're at Canyon Creek Trail.
