They list China Wall, Chinamans Gulch, Metberry, and 7 Mile. Those are the 'usual suspects' along with Slaughterhouse this time of year.

You mean West Creek? Yes, that's where you turn, just as you are starting up the steeper hill with the sharp turns, 39.15873N 105.16432W. Follow the road south and turn right at the fire station, 39.14418N 105.16282W. Follow that a few miles until the sign on the right which is where Cedar Mountain Rd starts and turn right, 39.12939N 105.20198W. Follow it until just past MM 18, and hang a right onto Metberry Gulch, 39.10273N 105.27711W. There is a dead end road or two off Cedar Mtn that go to campgrounds, so just stick to the more traveled path. On Metberry, stay off the spur trails which are closed whether they are posted or not. This includes the short hill just past the rock on the off camber corner as you are going back up.

Is a mild trail.

Not too difficult, but u can get pretty flexy on it.
