Cedar Creek is a mountain biking route in the Cabinet Mountains Wilderness, part of the Libby Ranger District of Kootenai National Forest in northwest Montana. The Forest Service manages the land, and the route lies within designated wilderness. The climb starts at about 4,600 feet and rises to roughly 5,900 feet over a 2.3-mile stretch, with a total gain of 1,322 feet. The steepest part comes at about 1.9 miles in, where the grade reaches 19 percent. The route also has a total loss of 442 feet, so it's not a straight climb. Several other rides sit close by. Grambauer Ridge Tie is a hike about 0.3 miles away, and the Cedar Creek Tie and North Fork Parmenter mountain biking routes are within about a mile. For an overnight stay, Dorr Skeels Campground is about 10 miles off.
