Hike from the Crooked Creek Covered Bridge, which was built around 1958 to the Crooked Creek Reservoir/Dam area.

Where: Meet at the Crooked Creek Dam restrooms that are located on the far side from the park office on Dam Road. We will shuttle over to the Covered Bridge and hike back to the cars. This is a very pretty area. It would be rated moderate to almost difficult. It does have some nice climbs with several creek crossings, bring extra socks.

Bring water, lunch and dry socks
