Itinerary description

This trail leads through a very scenic area with the best known draw being Hawksbill Crag, however there are many scenic areas along the trail and off spur trails along the way.

Waypoints

Hawksbill

This iconic rock formation is where the trail gets it's name and is a popular jumping off point for repeling.

Haley's Falls

Haley's Falls is actually a double waterfall. The upper falls drops about 20' to a broad ledge with an undercut behind it deep enough to set up camp in, then off of that ledge it plunges another 80 feet to the valley floor. The upper falls can be seen from above or you can go down a short trail left (facing downstream) of the falls. To get to the bottom falls go behind the upper falls (or cross the stream on the ledge) and circle along the bluff a few yard to the right of the stream and head downslope.

Trailhead Parking

5 or more miles of teeth-jarring dirt road gets you to the trail head from either direction.

Rockwall

Although many people end their hike at the Crag, the trail actually continues along the bluff for at least 1/2 a mile with several small falls and scenic rock formations along the way.
