This hiking trail has two trailheads which means you have the option of backpacking it one way if you have someone to pick you up at the other end. Lake Creek Trail has a total elevation difference of 1,998 feet, and that is about average. This neighborhood does get very dry sometimes, so do check for current fire restrictions before you go if you plan to bring a stove or make a camp fire. With its 7.8 miles of walking distance it's an average length great outdoors trail. Some parts of Lake Creek Trail are much higher up than other parts of the great outdoors trail which of course means you need to be prepared for different conditions on different parts of the great outdoors trail. This hike shouldn't take more than 7 hours, but of course some folks walk a bit slower and some a bit faster. Now this wilderness trail is pretty long, so make sure you bring plenty of supplies.
