Looking west from trail's end at east forest boundary. Mellow climbing for ~1.5 mi. w multiple crossings of Cottonwood Creek.
End of the line at the east forest boundary. Trail fades to its end at the locked gate.
Westbound back up the reamining ~800 ft. climb on return, loose and difficult terrain w/no shame in hike-a-bike for sections.
Trail restriction sign as route starts east. Trail braids its way downslope to stock tank.
Looking north on return, ~0.5 mi. from triple junction; hike-a-bike and technicalities are all behind you now.
Looking north at N Fork Highwood Creek-Kirby Creek Trails junction. NFHC descends a blissful 3.4 mi. to TH, KC climbs gently to distant ridge and descends to eastern base of Briggs Creek Trail.
Looking west near the top of North Fork Highwood Creek Trail in preparation for a four-mile descent to Thain Creek Campground.
