Description
Follow Telephone Trail 192 from the parking lot of Icehouse CCC Recreation Site southwest across Forest Road (FR) 112. Continue for 0.2 mile to a fork where Icehouse Trail 198 begins. Turn right onto Icehouse Trail 198 and follow it across Icehouse Creek, then up the other side where the trail follows an old road to the southwest. After 0.5 miles the trail junctions with Kellner Canyon Trail 242 on the right. At mile 2.3 the trail crosses Icehouse Creek near Dog House Spring, which is well shaded. Here the trail joins the Telephone Trail 192, and the two trails run together for about 200 feet past the ruins of an old cabin. Continue upstream crossing the creek several times. At mile 2.6 a trail on the right goes to a spring, while the main trail continues to the left. At mile 4 the trail leaves the drainage and switch backs up to the head of the canyon. At mile 4.5 the trail ends at the Upper Icehouse Trailhead on Forest Road (FR) 651.
