The Bailey Lakes trail begins on the Hooper Lake Trail # 1860 and ends at Bailey Lakes. Follow the Hooper Lake Trail for about 3 miles to reach the beginning of this trail which contiues another 1.5 miles to Bailey Lakes. A high clearance 4wd vehicle is required to reach the trailhead. It is recommended to have good map and compass skills for this area as there is so much undulating terrain and multiple trail intersections.
