Trail Overview
The route starts at Highway 120 and River Spring Road in the Adobe Valley, home to a thriving population of hundreds of wild mustangs. River Spring Road takes you to an Ecological Reserve, which includes a unique and natural spring system, surrounded by an arid environment. You climb out of the valley following powerlines until you reach forest route 03N11 turn North-East and cross the California Nevada Stateline. The trail goes through Juniper and Pinon Pines which can encroach on the trail, and brush scrapes are possible. Once you reach the point that you have a view overlooking Huntoon Valley you will have a short rock crawling section, but it is not difficult. Cross Huntoon Valley to Cow Camp to a public shared-use cabin once a cow camp, now part of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. Travel beyond the cabin to reach Little Huntoon Valley.
