Spectacular and remote loop in the Chamberlain Basin and Germania Creek <br />
area. Great views of Chamberlain Basin. All singletrack that in some cases <br />
is shared with motos. From the trailhead, take Germania Creek down 1.6 <br />
miles to Washington Creek. Go left and climb Washington Creek trail for 1.2 <br />
miles to a junction with a trail to Chamberlain Lakes. Take a right and <br />
continue on this trail for another 1.2 miles to another junction to <br />
Chamberlain lakes. After taking another right, continue for another 2 miles <br />
to the summit overlooking Chamberlain Basin, the lakes, and Castle Peak. <br />
Drop down into the basin and follow the steep and sometimes loose, <br />
sometimes faint singletrack down Chamberlain Creek about 5 miles to <br />
Germania Creek trail. Climb Germania Creek trail 6.1 miles back to the <br />
trailhead. Great mix of high mountain passes, great vistas, open <br />
sagebrush, forested singletrack, creek crossings, open meadows, and <br />
everything else you'd expect on a ride on the Boulder-White Clouds.
36 miles north of Ketchum and just north of Smiley Creek lodge, turn right on <br /><br />Pole Creek - Germania Creek Rd. Continue 12.1 miles over Pole Creek summit <br /><br />to Germania Creek trailhead (also Three Cabins Creek trailhead).
