Description

This undeveloped put-in provides access to the lowermost gorge of Wooley Creek. Reaching it requires a three-mile hike, and gets you about two miles of boating on the creek. From the trail, continue upstream from the first spot where it drops closer to the creek, pass two obvious dispersed campsites, and hike another few minutes to nearly reach Deer Lick Creek. Look for the most manageable spot to scramble down to Wooley Creek.
