Spring Creek Road

Spring Creek Road is a short, easy out-and-back hike in the Tres Piedras Ranger District of Carson National Forest in northern New Mexico. The route is about 0.34 miles long, with a total elevation gain of 27 feet, and it starts and ends at nearly the same point, with the high point at 9,844 feet and the low at 9,809 feet. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail sits within the Tres Piedras Ranger District of Carson National Forest. It makes a quick stop for anyone already in the district, and its short length makes it easy to fit into a longer day on foot or on the road. Hopewell Campground and the Cdt route both lie about 0.3 miles away, and the Tony Marquez Trail (41) is roughly 3.7 miles off. The Cdt - New Mexico Section is about 7 miles away.
