Trail Overview

This section of trail follows along the cliff side briefly from the Bruneau lookout point with informational kiosks and a pit toilet. Almost immediately is a spur for The overlook rec site for great camping with stellar views and a few bars of Verizon cell service. Shortly after the spur, the trail becomes more difficult with some rocky ledges and boulders as the explorer heads out into the endless fields of long, dried grasses. There are playful field sparrows that dart out in front of your rig and lead the way. This section links up with the Echo trail, which appears to lead to more sections of the ICT. There is no cell service at the lower end. Check out the overlook and Roberson hiking trailhead spur near where it connects with Echo.

Difficulty

Some Rocky ledges and boulders closer to the overlook entrance. Trail just becomes rocky and rutted after those sections when heading south.
