However, you’ll want to keep following the trail to go up to the top of the canyon wall. However, if you look hard enough, you can find a narrow trail climbing along the left (west) wall up the canyon.Īlong the way up, you might see multiple areas where you might be able to drop in. Once you’re up on the plateau, it might look like a dead-end here.
Make sure to stay left to climb up the plateau. From here, climb along the rock to get on top of the sloped waterfall. It can be slippery here so watch your step as you cross over the canyon floor and head toward the sloped waterfall at the end of the slot-like canyon. It is quite spectacular as you’re surrounded by the towering canyon walls. At around 1 mile, the trail will drop down to the canyon floor. The trail eventually winds through the middle of some blackberry bushes. As long as you follow the stream toward the canyon, you won’t get lost. These trails are either merge back together or take you down to the stream below. Along the way, there are several times when the main trail splits into multiple ways. This trail follows along the small stream on the right. From the trailhead, follow the well-defined sandy trail for about 1 mile or so. The first part of the approach is quite straightforward.
