Fall is one of the most scenic times in the KNF - The falls colors here are as spectacular as back east! Spring has comfortable day hiking - everything is green - but is subject to rain showers. |

| Sulphur Springs | Hiked 10/07/2005 | ||||||||||||||||
| This trailhead is apx 15 miles from the resort up a very scenic side canyon. The road is paved and in excellent condition. The trail starts at a campground. At this campground is a Sulphur Spring which bubbles up from the ground and collects in a rock pool about the size of a 10 person hot tub. The water temp is apx 70 degrees, The beauty can not be matched as the pool is on the banks of a beautiful tributary of the Klamath. The stream has waterfalls, large pools, and large granite boulders. The hiking trail begins here and follows the creek for miles. Choose your distance and stop at the creek for a picnic. The waters are crystal clear and refreshing. These waters come from the Marble Mountain Wilderness. Trail is easy to moderate. | |||||||||||||||||
