IMG_9999_edited.jpg

This is a small creek that runs from Big Bear down to Mill Creek and then through Mentone on the South side of the Hwy 38, then crosses over to the North side.  You can park your vehicle approximately 1-2 miles east of Bryant Street and walk down to the creek.  Please note, when leaving pick up your trash.  These areas are small gems that we all want to enjoy for years to come.
