There is parking on both sides of the road near the old mining ruins. Public restrooms are available and dispersed camping is allowed near the trailhead. From here you can run up Redcloud to the east, or Handies to the west; both are long nontechnical creek trails of comparable difficulty. It is best to get here super early in the summer or camp overnight to summit before afternoon storms.
