Pinochle trail is a section of the ancient Knik \- Nelchina Trail used by natives, trappers, miners and hunters for eons\. It traverses the natural route from the Matanuska Valley up and over the mountain range into Copper River country\. Hicks was one of the early guides who had a cabin at Hicks Creek and served with U\.S\. Army Lieutenant Joseph Castner to brushwack a trail northwest for Captain Glenn in 1898\. Described in his journal as at "Tale of Hardship and Suffering" they ended up eating their mules and shoes before reaching their goal far to the north\. Today we use these trails with relative ease compared to the old timers but the scenery and mud holes remind us of what they went through\. ## Key facts - Check-in: 2:00pm - Check-out: 12:00am - Coordinates: 61.80191, -147.86299 ## Address Sutton, AK, US ## Amenities - Atv\_riding - Back\_in - Backcountry - Biking - Cabin - Creek - Dispersed - Fire\_pit - Fires - Firewood - Forest - Hiking - Horseback Riding - Horseback\_riding - Mountain - Ohv\_riding - Picnic Table - Picnic\_table - Pit\_toilets - Primitive - River - Rock\_climbing - Rv - Rv\_camping - Stream - Tent - Tent\_camping - Toilets - Valley - Wildlife Watching - Wildlife\_viewing ## Structured data (schema.org) Also available as raw JSON: http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/listings/campgrounds/pinochle-trail-campground-sutton.json ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Campground", "@id": "http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/listings/campgrounds/pinochle-trail-campground-sutton", "name": "Pinochle Trail Campground", "description": "Flat, gravel spaces at Pinochle Trailhead in Glacier View, Alaska.
