Trail Overview
This is a fun desert trail with some good challenges. The south end starts at a sign in the wash, dedicating the trail to Jim Sims. From the sign, it starts with a steep climb up with loose rock, ruts, and embedded rock layers that is pretty technical right away. The trail is deeply troughed and rocky on one of the climbs. It rides atop a ridgeline and goes up a really steep, washed-out climb with deep ruts. This trail seems less trafficked, and the cactus along the route are really overgrown, so you have to watch your arms getting too close to the cactus. The views are pretty incredible throughout the route of these rugged desert mountains.

Difficulty
This is an intermediate trail due to technical hill climbs that are extremely loose, rutted, and steep. There are several rocky sections with embedded rock in the climbs as well.
