You should count on this backcountry hike taking about 4.5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. Some parts of Flip-O-Way Trail are much higher up than other parts of the backcountry trail which of course means you need to be prepared for different conditions on different parts of the backcountry trail. Even though this is not a very long hiking trail you should still bring some emergency supplies just in case something happens. Flip-O-Way Trail has two trailheads, so backcountry trekking it one way is an option if you can arrange for a ride back. Flip-O-Way Trail is 5.4 miles long it's a mid length trek. Flip-O-Way Trail has a total elevation difference of 2,399 feet which is an average number.
