Log Hollow-Nobletts Trail #064


The Nobletts Creek portion of the trail is rather steep as it follows the left side of the creek up to a grassy meadow to the ridge.  It then joins a road and meanders pleasantly along the ridge where it affords a spectacular view across the valley below.  The road winds down the back and around the end of the ridge, then turns into a trail as it enters Log Hollow.  The Log hollow portion of the trail drops down to where it joins with Highway 35.  The trail is well marked and not difficult to follow.  The tread is eroded in some spots on the Nobletts Creek side, but not enough to make the hike hazardous or to obscure the trail.  Evergreens and aspen form the primary vegetation along the entire trail with the exception of the grassy meadow at the top of the Nobletts Creek.
