About this place

Kelly Lake Trailhead feeds into the Siskiyou Wilderness. A short, easy 1/4 mile walk and you are at beautiful little Kelly Lake. There are two campsites here: one on the southeast end and one on the northwest end. The trail goes northwest for 3 miles to the Poker Flat Trailhead and then turns south and follows near the forest boundary to Twin Valley and on to Youngs Valley where you can pick up the Clear Creek National Recreation Trail. From Happy Camp go north on Indian Creek Rd/Forest Service Road 48 approx. 13 miles to Forest Road 18N31 on the left. Follow the signs on this gravel road approx. 7 miles to the trailhead and parking lot.
