Dogie Trail #116

The trail snakes into the heart of the Sycamore Canyon Wilderness connecting to the Taylor Cabin Trail after approximately 5.5 miles. The trail begins at the Sycamore Canyon Wilderness boundary, at a saddle several hundred yards from where you should park your vehicle.Expect panoramic views as the trail descends from the saddle and follows hilly contours, with each turn offering a slightly new host of plants and terrain. The trail frequently drops into washes only to climb back up the other side, so expect moderate and consistent ups and downs. Be prepared for a rugged, moderate-to-strenuous hike with unreliable sources of water and few spots for shade.
