Fish Creek to Trail Creek Loop

Here's a little video of a trip Ryan and I took this weekend to prove that you can link Fish Creek to Warm River via Trail Creek.  However, I don't know in retrospect that I'd recommend it.  The most time consuming leg is along an abandoned logging road that hasn't seen use for probably 20 years, and in another 20 will be virtually unrecognizable.  While many of these back roads have had tank traps dug at the entrances, this route strangely was trap free until we were several miles back in.  The link-up was made possible via an official if virtually unmaintained USFS trail that fortunately for us was "marked" with stakes every tenth of a mile or so.  After making it to the Trail Creek Spring the trail became incrementally easier to follow.  On another day I'd love to come up with the mountain bikes and take this single track from the Warm River Hatchery over to the Moose Creek trail and back again.  But this route was probably won't be repeated.
