Little Lost Creek

Traveling along the high desert northwestern edge of Fishlake National Forest, Lost Creek Road winds through a lush and scenic canyon with numerous water crossings, even in the summer months. Lost Creek is fed from the reservoirs higher up in the Fishlake National Forest, creating crystal clear, chilly water that is inviting on a summer day. The trail's northern section is well-graded and maintained, while the middle and southern sections have shallow water crossings, deep dry ruts, and washouts that warrant the need for high clearance and, at times, 4WD. The trail is wide enough for all full-size overland camper vehicles and trailers. Camping is limited to only a few spots, and none of the small pull-off type sites are on the brush-lined creek. Abundant and scenic camping by the lake can be found along the nearby Lost Creek-Rex Reservoir.
