About This Trail

Imported description

It was a rock scrambler's dream. You can park at the basin. The quote says to walk up Hell Hill, then climb up a rock chute to a limestone terrace and go to the Gray Cap summit. It is possible to scramble down a different rock chute that has seasonal water terraces. The view of Calico Hills and other areas of Red Rock is beautiful. It is so worth it.
