Trail Overview

This is a rocky canyon with a bunch of optional lines, offshoots, and scenic views in between. You can make this trail as tough and long as you want--there are lots of bypasses and optional lines. It's a great trail if you're in a mixed group of buggies and full-bodied vehicles and close to the parking lot.
