You can start down stagecoach, take that all the way, or hit flood trail. Or from where you park keep going down the hill on the road and turn left on Canyon rd, take that till it hits the dirt and Manzanita trail will be on your lift after about 100yrds from the green gate. Take Stagecoach hill down to the confluence, cross the bridge and take a left to start up the Clementine loop. At the top of the Clementine loop go just past where everyone parks and on the left will be the Connector Trail. Take that to Forresthill Divide trail and do that loop then take the connector trail back to the top of the clementine loop and go up and do the Covert trail and then link up with the Confluence downhill. At the bottom cross the bridge and take Stagecoach back up to the car. You could also park down at the river and do Stagecoach/Manzanita/Flood first so you don't have to end on a climb. I know most of these trails are already posted here, I just got tired of adding each one to my log when I do them all.
From I-80 take the Elm St. exit and head toward Hwy 49 South. Turn left onto Lincoln and then proceed north to Russell Rd. Make a right onto Russell and follow until the road turns hard right. Trailherad is on the left. <br />
