Chamberlain Creek is a hard hike in Idaho's Cecil D. Andrus-White Clouds Wilderness, part of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area within the Sawtooth National Forest. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail is a natural-surface out-and-back that climbs from about 7,089 feet to about 9,507 feet over roughly 9.2 miles. The route is rated hard, and the one-way gain is about 2,124 feet. Horses are allowed on the trail, which makes it an option for riders as well as hikers. The wilderness setting adds to the challenge, and the trip is best planned with that in mind. Several other destinations sit within a few miles. Washington Lake Cr. and the Baker Lake hike are each about 2.6 miles away, and Germania Creek offers canoeing about 2.8 miles off. The Phyllis Lake Trail is about 3.1 miles away.
