Itinerary description

Location: Southeast of Florence Junction, northeast of Florence.
Difficulty: Easy.

Description: A unique and scenic drive through a narrow, steep-walled canyon. It’s tempting to rate this trail easy but there are several moderate-size rocks to get over. Stock SUVs with good ground clearance should be okay. You may bottom out occasionally but damage is unlikely. The trail is a bit tougher driven uphill in the opposite direction. Stay off this trail if rain is expected. This canyon is extremely dangerous when flooded. The walls of the canyon are too steep to climb out. Route-finding is easy.
