Baker Creek Details

Baker Creek is being returned to Mother Nature. Near Skokii Valley, Baker Creek is a places of solitude that serves as a critical habitat for grizzly bears, wolverine and lynx, which all call the valley home. This place of refuge is where these wildlife can raise their young and hunt in peace, and as such, the trail that once ran alongside the creek is no longer being maintained, and is being returned to wild land.
