Overview

Just off Rock Creek Road, outside North Fork, California, and east of Bass Lake in the Sierra National Forest is 6S68 - Sand Creek. This short trail is part of a common route connecting the Whiskey Falls area and the Whiskey Falls Campground to the base of the more technical Shuteye Peak. Along this trail, you will find an open forest meadow, Gaggs Campground, and, of course, Sand Creek. New off-roaders, campers, or overlanders might enjoy this trail for the remote camping opportunities, places to cool off along Sand Creek, and miles and miles of connecting mountain trails at either end.
