The trail begins at the Spring Creek parking lot and you make an immediate crossing to reach the climb into the hills. We had a beautiful day for a hike, 64 degrees. Flume trail follows the old flume built through the hills.
Click on the picture to enlarge and see how the ground was dug out to ease the flow of water.
Couple of tunnel shots, I can't imagine the effort this took.
Beautiful location for a home, no one else in sight. We did have a rancher and dog stop to ask us if we had seen any lost cows. You never forget you're in SoDak, cows are pretty important to West River economics.
Trail number and the designation.
Beautiful view in the distance.
Our total round trip distance was around 4 miles.
