There are two trailheads to chose from, one in each end which means you have the option of backcountry backpacking it one way if you have someone to pick you up at the other end. The total elevation difference for Owl Cabin Way is 3,365 feet which is higher than average. The time needed for this walk is roughly 5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. Even though this is not a very long backpacking and hiking trail you should still bring some emergency supplies just in case something happens. Different parts of this great outdoors trail are at very different elevations, and that means that some parts of the great outdoors trail could be very different from other parts of it. At parts of the year this area sees very little rain, so make sure you check current conditions and fire restrictions with local forest authorities before you head out. Being 5.6 miles long it's a mid length trek.
