Write-ups that name no single mapped trail, in the Service's words.
- Bridge Creek Wilderness
Bridge Creek drains northeasterly from the edge of the summit of the Ochoco Mountains, essentially dividing the 5,400-acre wilderness into two meadow-filled plateaus. The peaks of East Point and North Point look across the wilderness from 6,625 feet and 6,607 feet, respectively. - Mill Creek Wilderness
The southwest-tending drainage of Mill Creek makes up 85 percent of the Wilderness, with Marks Creek drainage accounting for the difference. Both creeks are tributaries of Ochoco Creek, and home to small trout. The steep, broken ridges that drop into Mill Creek rise to Bingham Prairie in the northwest corner, a virtually flat plateau with open meadows and a lodgepole pine forest.
About these trails
The lines are the US Forest Service's National Forest System trails layer (public domain), read 2026-10-16 and simplified for the map; the length is the line's, end to end, and the class, surface, grade and tread width are the forest's own entries where it publishes them - a forest that publishes the centreline alone has none. The trailheads and the points along the way are the Service's recreation points, and the write-ups its own recarea text, unedited. Heights come from USGS 3DEP through Terrain Tiles on AWS (Mapzen/Tilezen), read along each line and rounded; a short trail on steep ground can be off by a few tens of feet. Closures change: check the forest's own site before you go.
