Burdette Creek Trail

Burdette Creek Trail 2 is a dead-end trail that provides access into the Burdette Creek drainage. The major period of use is during the hunting season. The trail follows the creek for the majority of its length and gains only 400 feet elevation within 5 miles. Several dispersed camping and picnicking sites are available along the trail.
