Robinson Creek - South — Thursday, May. 19, 2022

I hiked up Robinson Creek to Beauty Creek falls and beyond about 4 miles one way. After the pavement ends at Lost River, the road was passable for my VW Golf, but there were quite a few potholes so take you time if you have low clearance. There were not other cars at the trailhead on a Thursday morning. The trail was well maintained with a few blowdowns that were easily stepped over or walked around. Lots of wildflowers this time of year and the creek was really roaring! As you walk further this trail had a nice wild feel to it heading out in to the Pasayten Wilderness with views out to Beauty Peak, Robinson Mt. and beyond. At 2.8 miles the falls make a good turnaround for a short day on the trail. Just past the bridge over the falls a few feet and on your right is a climbers trail that will take you up in to the high country for views and climbing if you like. Lots of options and really quiet wilderness feel up Robinson Creek...
