The dirt road is in pretty good condition and should be navigable by any crossover. The side roads that lead to abandoned mining buildings and equipment require moderate clearance. There are many dispersed camping sites along the road, but they were starting to fill up by mid-afternoon on a Friday. The creek itself is a pretty blue-grey color due to its mineral content. The abandoned mines make this an interesting place to checkout.

One annoying thing is that a set of powerlines run through the valley along the creek and spoil the view somewhat.
