Trip Report: I enjoyed this hike, although it was a little confusing in places. There are a lot of intersecting trails and although most come back on eachother they are not marked. I was unsure if the river was the end of the hike as it hadn't felt like I had gone that far, but it would have been dangerous to continue on the other side of the river in that particular place. May have missed a cross trail though that would have gone on farther. There were some small waterfalls at the end, more like cascades. There was some areas on the canyon walls that had water trickling and may have potential for waterfalls when the snow melts at the top of the rock walls. Along the way we also heard what may have been a sheep as bighorn sheep are known to populate the area. I met a couple of gentlemen from Texas along the way, but the trail otherwise remained quiet that day.
