Briefly
about the general area:
It's always great to have a look at Indigo Springs, and a brilliant spot to camp here at Diamond Peak Trail is Shelter Cove Resort. But wait, there's more fun stuff to do in the Central Cascade Range. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's
for you then we recommend Salt Creek; as expected Bear Creek flows through this region.
If you're here, you might as well stop at Paddys Valley, and there are some pleasant whitewater spots on Hills Creek. Not enough hours in a day to enjoy the Central Cascade Range. Why not
camp at Lake Lucile Campground while you're here at Diamond Peak Trail, and since you're here, you could explore Scout Creek.
So much exciting stuff next to Diamond Peak Trail, clearly striking. Wolf Prairie is a wonderful location any time of year, and don't leave Diamond Peak Trail without first paying a visit to Chuckle Springs.
