Description
Follow the narrow footpath through meadow and creek beds. Eventually follow up the ravine to the ridge. The map shows a deviation from the ravine to the right about half way up, I would recommend staying in the ravine until it hits the ridge. Perhaps someone will record again and update with better map points. We were coming down and missed the entrance to the ravine.
