Dishpan Springs

Lake Arrowhead, California

Dishpan Springs

Two notable waterfall obstacles and numerous rocky sections throughout Dishpan Springs make for one fun trail.

Dishpan Springs is the east end of forest route 3N34, the opposite side of Willow Creek Jeep trail, and is also known as the Crab Flats OHV route or Deep Creek Trail.

Dishpan is the only off-road 4x4 trail connecting the off-road trail networks of Lake Arrowhead to the west and Big Bear's Holcomb Valley to the East.

The steep waterfall obstacles of Dishpan Springs may look intimidating, but with the right line, they are doable. Both waterfall obstacles include easier bypasses to the side, but who runs this trail for the bypasses?
