Trail Overview
You can start this trail from the north at Highway 79 or south at East Edwin Road. The trail follows a small powerline and cuts through several washes. Be careful in monsoon season or while raining. You pass several corrals and go through a couple of BLM grazing gates. The only hazards are cacti, tree pinstriping, and some mud holes after rains. (Please leave gates as you found them, no target shooting, and an Arizona State Trust Land Permit is required.)

Difficulty
Mud holes and deep ruts can be present after heavy rains. Be careful in washes. The sand washes are relatively firm, but heavy vehicles may need to air down.
