§ 02 — OVERVIEW
The Turret Creek trail begins at the Hilltop Trailhead near Sweetwater Lake and ends at Trapper's Lake Trail #1816. This trail provides good access to the Flat Tops Wilderness, with the 3220 foot elevation gain spread out over the entire course. The trail begins in a dry area with scrub oak, then follows Turret Creek, passing through stands of aspen and grassy meadows.
The trail then enters lodgepole pine and passes through Turret Meadows at 4 1/2 miles, from here the trail steepens as it climbs the ridge of the White River Plateau. * There is a printable Recreation Quicksheet for this trail which is complete with directions, a map, details, and other information about this trail.
