This hiking and backpacking trail has a total elevation difference of 2,516 feet, and that is higher than average. This hiking and backpacking trail sometimes gets very dry, so don’t forget to check for any current fire restrictions before you go. Some parts of Cain Cabin Trail are much higher up than other parts of the wilderness trail, so keep in mind that you may need to dress differently at different elevations. You should count on this hike taking about 6 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that.
