Clark Creek is a hard hike in the Bridger Wilderness, part of the Pinedale Ranger District of the Bridger-Teton National Forest in Wyoming. The trail is an out-and-back route of about 14 miles, with a total elevation gain of about 1,260 feet, from a low point of roughly 9,300 feet to a high of about 10,936 feet. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail is open year-round. The route is natural-surface and allows horses, but bikes are not permitted. That makes it a good fit for riders on horseback or on foot, and the trail's length and climb mean planning for a full day. The closest neighbors are New Fork, a hike about 1.3 miles away, and New Fork Park, a climbing area about 2.2 miles off. Lost Camp Trail lies about 3.7 miles away, and The Narrows Campground is about 7.2 miles away for anyone wanting to camp overnight.
