The trail begins climbing through stands of Aspen and patches of Sarvis Berries. After 2.3 miles a bridge crosses Sarvis Creek and the trail continues upstream. Remnants of human occupation and historic logging can be spotted as the trail meanders through forest and open meadows. After 7.4 miles the trail leaves the main drainage of Sarvis Creek before entering an area that was burned in the Silver Creek Fire of 2018 and reaching the Upper Sarvis Creek Trailhead .

Please Note: This area was hit hard by the Mountain Pine Beetle epidemic. Falling trees can pose a great safety risk to campers and hikers.
