I'll start off by saying that I originally had planned on doing the Trail 25 & 410 loop, but I ended up just wandering around creating my own loop instead, but I know I for sure was on 25 and the Deep Creek Canyon Trail at some point! I lived in Spokane for four years and I never explored this area; I'm so mad at myself for not taking advantage of this beautiful park while I lived closer!

Great extremely accessible trail. It is blacktop paved and very wide.

The park service had just recently resurfaced and regraded the gravel parking lot, so there were no issues at the trailhead. All of the trails that we hiked in the vicinity were in good shape, with no tread issues or tree blockage.
