2024-04-21 Lee Creek Trail

After passing through the clearing, you can hop across the creek and travel along the Homestead Trail. It's a 3.3 mile loop up the slightly steep terrain. There are scenic overlooks of the water draining in the Lee Creek Reservoir to look forward to at the top!

After coming down the mountain and crossing the creek, the trail goes up the hill and passes the interesting geological feature known as the Crack in the Rock. The crack originated out of the Arkoma Basin and is formed out of sandstone. Although it is deep, you can see the bottom and jump across the crack if you want to! Past the crack, the trail also features two waterfalls and continues along the creek with more rock formations overhanging. The trail makes a loop and heads down the hill back towards the parking lot.
