Dutchmans Trail has a total elevation difference of 1,029 feet which is about average. This is a wilderness trail that is quite long, so do pack enough food to last the whole trip. This wilderness trail sometimes gets very dry, so do check for current fire restrictions before you go if you plan to bring a stove or make a camp fire. With its 30 miles of walking distance; it's considered a longer hike. Of course, this is an overnight backcountry trek, 4.5 days normally, so make sure you've got all your overnight gear packed. This wilderness trail has two trailheads, so backcountry hiking it one way is an option if you can arrange for a ride back. There's not much difference in elevation along the wilderness hiking trail which means the conditions are about the same from start to finish.
