The total elevation difference for this backcountry trail is 2,246 feet, and that is about average. Silver Butte Trail is 15.6 miles long; it's longer than many trails. At parts of the year this vicinity sees very little rain, so make sure you check current conditions and fire restrictions with local forest authorities before you head out. This is a two-ended backcountry trail with two trailheads, so if you can get a ride from someone, you can hike it just one way. Of course, this is an overnight backcountry trek, 2.5 days normally, so it's a perfect thing if your backpack is big enough to do the job. Different parts of this trail are at very different elevations, so keep in mind that you may need to dress differently at different elevations. Keep in mind that this is a long hiking trail, so don't forget to pack enough supplies.
