| Hike Summary: | BLM put in a new trail because again someone made the old route Private Property. the hike might be a bit dificult at the section that we call the "Stairs" the rock is cut like steps. Once you get to the "A" people usually turn around. I remember if you go up farther there is a water tank and a holding pool. But thats like near the top of the peak. |

The trail continues for miles – including a trail on the west side of the ridge that connects with the Indian Wells trail, or going over the saddle into Dry Canyon. This is a strenuous trail with few flatter places
