Getting There: From Ely head south on Hwy 50/93 for 7 miles. Take a left and
follow the signs to Cave Lake State Park.
Directions for the New Trail, Loop: As you are heading up the Highway toward
Cave Lake you will see a turnout on your right, park hear (this loop goes by
several other places to park so you can start anywhere, just be sure to pay all
applicable fees). The Steptoe Creek Trail takes off from here. Follow Steptoe
Creek Trail as far as you can towards the lake paralling the road until there is no
other option except to cross a couple of bridges and end up on the main road
again. Follow the road up to the lake and to the trailhead on the far side. From
this trailhead follow the trail across the white bridge and take a right. On your left
you'll see a faint trail, follow this. Eventually it turns into a real trail and climbs up
from the lake. Keep climbing and eventually you'll see the new trail on your right,
it's signed with a map. Follow this all the way down back to Steptoe Creek and
where you parked.
