About This Trail

Imported description

It is a nice climb and ridge walk. The parking lot contains a road that leads up to the trailhead. After 50 feet, the trail becomes non-obvious. The trail is well defined after climbing the slick rock. As you walk to the end of the trail, there are great views of the surrounding area.
