Itinerary description
Technical and endurance demanding trail for a beginner like me. Tough for unfit people or those with difficult bouldering and scrambling.
For me, this trail is a few grades tougher than Leopard Canyon. As there are multiple walls of boulders that need to be crossed and boulders are considerably bigger. We did not need to use a rope up and down the trail.
The trail is devious as several walls of boulders lead you to small patches of flat areas which you believe is the hidden oasis but they are not. On the way back your knees and footing gets tested as you decend.
