Description
Trail begins with a run through some sand dunes and proceeds up through a narrow wash. Smaller waterfalls and wedge shaped obstacles abound.
Highlights
Three waterfalls with the second being the most treacherous. There are a series of cracks and climbs to negotiate. Most obstacles have a bypass. Possible hot tub at end if time allows. We finish on John’s Trail if time and weather permits.
