Go to CC. Pay the honor fee. Enjoy your morning hike. Bring water and a snack. Feet likey to get wet.

Clark Creek is much more wife friendly. If you want difficulty, just jump off on the primitive trail. Bring plenty of water, and plan on your shoes getting wet from the creek and waterfalls.

The trail can get a little hard to follow in the back along the creek where it makes that sharp 90 but you shouldn't get lost.

Clark Creek. If you still want more, you can stop by Tunica on the way home.

Clark Creek will be an azz-buster when wet. Several tricky spots w elevation. i would go Tunica Hills until CC dries up.

Clark Creek is awesome been there several times. When you think you have a enough water bring more. We ran out of water once out there, not fun.

The trail is hard to follow when you get far out but you can walk the creek beds to make the hike easier.

Is tunica worth it? Seems like CC is the way to go if it doesn't rain too much friday

You better have your shite together if your on the primitive trail. Once you get on you cannot get off. I went with a group of guys back in high school one time. Given we were drinking absinthe and smoking weed when we first got there. I thought a few of the fellas was gonna have heat stroke by one o clock.

Clark Creek, bring stuff to get wet... bathing suit, water shoes,etc. Its a popular place to hike in shoes/boots then change into sandals/water shoes. The creek is a nice way to cool off. The hills of CC can be pretty damn tough on the weak/young/inexperienced. It is NOT child friendly unless you like carrying your child. Same goes for a S.O. that doesnt want to climb steep grades.

They're similar. CC just offers more elevation and a big loop. However, it is slick as otter snot when wet.

I went a month or so ago but I have no idea which one I went to. I thought they were the same thing.

Which one has 2 trail types? I took my dog off leash. I didn't see anything saying no dogs.

CC. Primitive is longer if I'm correct.

pretty sure we did a little of both. It started raining. We got lost. My dog tried to kill an armadillo and a chipmunk (didn't realize we had those in LA). Good times.
