This trail has a total elevation difference of 2,706 feet which is higher than average. There are two trailheads to chose from, one in each end, so if you can get a ride from someone, you can backcountry walk it just one way. Being 5.8 miles long it's an average length backcountry trail. This hike shouldn't take more than 5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. This backcountry trail goes through some very different elevations, so keep in mind that you may need to dress differently at different elevations. At parts of the year this vicinity sees very little rain, so do check for current fire restrictions before you go if you plan to bring a stove or make a camp fire. This backpacking trail is not that long but you should still bring some emergency supplies just in case something happens.
