Trail Overview
This short desert trail starts in an overgrown wash full of tall bushes, at the same intersection as 8601C, then climbs up to the ridge line of a small hill, and meanders on the desert mesas between pinyon pine trees. It has a steep and loose downhill with big rock ledges, slab rock, and boulders that add a challenge. The trail turns south into a wash that requires going down a big rock ledge to drop 5 feet into the wash. It is like stair steps down between a rock pinch on the edge of the wash and is harder going up it than down. It ends in the camping/staging area that is accessed off of Colorado River Road 301.
