Coal Creek Trail #41 follows the creek past waterfalls and deep forest, climbing 3,160 feet in 3 miles to just below Graham Mountain. The trail is steep in sections and some hiking is probably required. Ignore trails that lead off to the left. At 5400 feet elevation and 3.5 miles find the junction with the Graham Ridge Trail #17 and cruise the ridge for 6 miles to the junction with Graham Creek Trail #33. At just over 2 miles along the ridge there is a clear-cut now of several acres that has hidden the trail for a short distance but it can picked up again at the opposite end. Descend #33 down a wonderful singletrack for 3.7 miles to the highway. Ride back down the highway for a mile and a half to the start. The views on this trail are superb, but it is a bit of a climb.
From Coeur d’Alene, Idaho drive east on I-90 taking the Kingston Exit #43. After exiting, travel north on Forest Highway 9 (FH9) 13.1 miles to the trailhead. Turn right off FH9 at the sign and park a short distance up the road. A couple of dispersed camping areas are located near the trailhead.
Summary: Coal Creek with it's old mines, cascades, moss covered rocks and ferns, is just one of the interesting rides in the area.
Recommended Route: To ride up Graham Creek instead of Coal creek is easier but the descent of Coal Creek is brutal. There is a cutoff trail from lower Graham Creek to the upper portion of Coal Creek that can be used to vary the climb to Graham Ridge.
