Trail Overview
This route travels through the dense forest on the north side of Cerro Jarocito, which stands at over 9,800 feet, from FR 93 Resumidero Falls to FR 93 Red Mud Rumble. A few wildfires have scarred the forest, but it is coming back to life. There are a few spots with gorgeous views of Pedernal Peak. Pedernal Peak is prominent in paintings by the acclaimed artist, Georgia O'Keefe.

Muddy/Wet
I connected with this trail from Mud Rumble. It is a beautiful, simple trail. However, if it were more wet (had some puddles), coming in from the Mud Rumble side could be challenging.
