Gold Bug Mine Trail

Trail Overview

This 5.7 point-to-point trail traverses through the Artillery Mountains and passes the Gold Bug Mine. The northern half of the trail is easy to travel. When the trail leaves the wash and heads up the Artillery Mountains the trail becomes more difficult with narrow cliff-side sections and off-camber travel. While passing through the mountains there are many narrow sections where you will get some good Arizona pin-stripping.

Difficulty

This trail has long steep, rocky ascent/descent with off-camber sections. Narrow washes, and pin-stripping will occur.
