Farmer's Creek Trail near Creede

Post by jsf80238 »

I am looking to backpack along the Farmer's Creek Trail near Creede.
The map (https://caltopo.com/m/4CQ63) appears to show numerous perennial water sources.
Yet the Forest Service description (https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/riogran ... ecid=29010) says otherwise.
Which is to be believed?

I've not been in many times but not very far back (maybe 4-5 miles tops), however, I have always seen water in the creek.

Thank you. I called the Forest Service and they did not know, other than to say their topo map showed water, also.
