Deep Creek-Rock Creek Trail is a 14.9-mile out-and-back trail near Elk Mountain, Wyoming, with a great forest setting.

A lovely, long trail following the creeks of a deep, shady canyon. It's a popular place to stretch out because it's so easy to get to, so well constructed and the surroundings are so peaceful and expansive. In places, it is quite narrow with steep drop-offs toward the creek. Dead-fall is cleared occasionally, but there will be some to cross. An optional spur leads to Crater Lake, a spring-fed gem embraced by towering granite walls.
