Elk Flat Trail

This trail is maintained for foot and horse traffic since it lies within the Wenah-Tucannon Wilderness. From Elk Flat Trailhead, the trail drops drastically for 1 1/2 miles to a flat which lasts 1/2 mile, and then descends 3 miles gradually to the Wenaha Forks Area on the Wenaha River. There is a large area available for parking at the trailhead with a spring fed small creek available for watering stock. The trail is heavily laden with mosquitoes at the trailhead and on past the flat section along the trail. Yet, access to the Wenaha River and to other fishing opportunities are available off this trail. Large area for camping opportunities at the Wenaha Forks area. Views of the South Fork of the Wenaha drainage are available on the lower sections of the trail.
