Trail Overview

This is a long out-and-back trail that runs out into a cherry stem in the Labyrinth Canyon Wilderness Area, and overlooks the Green River below. Much of this trail is just two tracks on top of a mesa; there are a few rocky areas with some ledges, and one area that is extremely washed out. In some of the washout areas, a bypass alongside the old trail exists, but in some areas it's not possible to avoid. There is a campsite and turnaround at the very end of this trail, but it is surrounded by a wilderness area, so all motorized vehicles are strictly prohibited from going off the trail.
