Getting There
From I-5 exit 255, drive State Route 542 33 miles to the Glacier Public Service Center (GPSC) just past the town of Glacier. From the GPSC, continue east on SR 542 1.8 miles. Turn left on Canyon Creek Road (FR-31), a one-lane paved road. After 7.4 miles, the road deteriorates to gravel and dirt with large potholes, alternating with badly eroded patchy pavement. At 8.5 miles, go straight. At 9.3 miles cross Canyon Creek on a bridge, then turn right to stay on pavement. At 11.6 miles, stay left. This is the end of the patchy pavement; the unpaved road ahead is an improvement. At 15.3 miles, stay left again. The trailhead is at the end of FR-31, 16.7 miles from the turnoff from 542. There is a vault toilet and parking for about 15 vehicles.
