Trip Report

ReporterBryan Swan

For those willing to shoulder your boat, Silver Creek looks good all the way up to Mineral City, mostly Class III-IV if I remember right, 4 miles up the trail. There are two waterfalls immediately below the bridge where the trail crosses the creek, one is about 10 feet, the other is about 20 feet. They can both be skipped by putting in at the Mineral City site, about 200 yards downstream, where the trail fords a creek.
