About Aspen Creek Trail #48
Aspen Creek Trail #48 climbs steeply from its trailhead on Copper Basin Road to a ridge below Mount Francis. After this initial climb, the trail evens out and provides an easy, scenic hike. There are some nice views of Spruce Mountain, Mount Union, and the Wilhoit area. Upper portions of this trail pass through ponderosa pine and Gambel oak. Although there are no aspens along the trail, there is a large stand of these remarkable trees farther up Copper Basin Road from the trailhead.

This trail is open to hikers, horseback riders, and mountain bicyclists. Please be considerate of other users—slow down and know when to yield the trail. Refrain from using horses and bicycles when the trail is wet.

From its intersection with White Spar Road, travel west on Copper Basin Road 3 miles to the end of the pavement. Continue another 1.5 miles to the trailhead on the right. Parking is fair. TR 48 begins uphill on the opposite side of the road. The road conditions are suitable for all vehicle types. From Aspen Creek Trail #48 webpage
