Lost Creek Falls Trail in Bayfield County

In Bayfield County Forest, across the road from the old Town of Bell Cemetery, is the trailhead to Lost Creek Falls. From there it’s less than a half-hour hike to the falls.

On my recent visit it was easy to find the “lost” creek and falls, but my wife lost her sunglasses, I lost her cousin’s dog (temporarily) and the crotch of my shorts ripped while I was climbing a ledge (making those shorts “lost” from my wardrobe). There’s also a geocache out there we couldn’t find. So maybe that’s how the trail gets its name.
