Location: Access the Glade Creek Trailhead from the Grassy Lake Road 4.5 miles west of Flagg Ranch about 3/4 of a mile after you enter the area burned during the 1988 Greater Yellowstone fires.

Notes: There are no facilities at this trailhead-remember to bring water and use a restroom before you arrive. Bears may be active any place and at any time-travel in groups, make noise and carry bear spray. Backcountry camping requires a permit- pick one up at a backcountry permits office. The road doesn't open until after June 1 due to grizzly bear migration.
