The Scab Creek Pack Stock Staging Area, located within the Scab Creek Recreation Area, provides access to the Scab Lake and Scab Creek trails for those wishing to travel with pack stock. Both trailheads located at the staging area travel through the Scab Creek Wilderness Study Area before connecting to the greater Bridger Wilderness trail system. There is a vault toilette, potable water and corrals available.
Getting there
From Pinedale, drive south on US 191 for 12 miles, turn left at the gas station in the town of Boulder, and head east on WY 353 for 7 miles. Take another left onto Scab Creek Road/CR-122 follow this road for 1.5 miles take a slight left onto Scab Creek Access Road/BLM 5423 and follow it until you reach Scab Creek Recreation Area, roughly 5.5 miles. The pack stock staging area is the second entrance on the right side of the road once you have entered the recreation area.
1991–2020 averages from the nearest NOAA station, 9.4 mi away — not measured at the facility itself, and elevation can make a real difference over that distance.
