Description

The hike begins at the well developed Slide Creek Trailhead. It descends into the canyon and follows Slide Creek. It is all downhill. The route provides stunning views of the Jarbidge Wilderness, and passes Gods Pocket Canyon. The trail ends at the East Fork of the Jarbidge, at which point you can either return the way you came, or head up or down river on the East Fork Trail.
