Trail Overview

This trail starts out rocky and relatively easy, but quickly changes as the road becomes steep and narrow. There is a meadow along the way for a rest stop. There are numerous water crossings from springs in the area. As the route climbs and becomes steeper, there are switchbacks up the rocky scree slope. The photo opportunities are amazing with the entire Echo Basin visible.
