About
The Big Fish Trail begins at the Big Fish Trailhead in the Himes Peak Campground [https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/whiteriver/recarea/?recid=40783]. The trail crosses the White River on a narrow foot bridge, then enters the Flat Tops Wilderness [http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/whiteriver/recarea/?recid=81112] where regulations apply. The trail follows Big Fish Creek .75 miles to Bessie's Falls, then continues another mile to Big Fish Lake. One-half mile beyond Big Fish Lake, the trail starts a twisting, two-mile climb onto the Flat Tops, where it joins Oyster Lake Trail #1825 [https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/whiteriver/recarea/?recid=40807].
