Mount Margaret Trailhead

The trail crosses South Lone Pine Creek then meanders through meadows, sparse stands of lodgepole and ponderosa pine trees, and granite outcroppings. Several campsites have been established within the first 2.5 miles. The trail often follows old logging roads. It passes through an area known as Five Points, which is the intersection of five roads/trails. At least one trail originates in Dowdy Lake Campground, and others are loops off the main trail. Several more established campsites can be found along these routes. The trail continues past Five Points for nearly two miles to the base of Mount Margaret overlooking a deep canyon, North Lone Pine Creek and the Prairie Divide Road. Mount Margaret trailhead accommodates approximately 23 vehicles.
