Little Silver Trails
MAP
6.5 miles from G.T.
easy—mod. options
Little Silver creek is a tributary of Rock Creek and drains the
watershed west of the Mace Mill Ridge. The trail was closed to OHV after
a new bridge/route was opened up between Mace Mill and Darling Ridge.
Hikers only right now.
Directions:
Take Wentworth Springs Rd. east 4.5 miles and turn R on Balderson Rd. Go
almost another mile and turn R on Darling Ridge Rd. (sign reads “Bear
Creek 6). Proceed on D.R. Rd. for 1.1 miles ignoring the unpaved road on
the right at .6 miles (Grey Eagle Road). The trailhead is on the left
and has a sign 11E19.
This trail
goes east from D.R. Rd. through a wooden
barricade and winds down through big treed forest, crossing wood bridges
over small creeks. This trail offers many side trails that connect to a
maze of other trails. Confusing sometimes even with the F.S. map. Many
loops and options for hiking are available but listen for dirt bikes and
watch for occasional horses here
