Overview
Hog Hill Trail is an alternate route that branches off the Dorsey Spring Trail about a quarter-mile from the Dorsey trailhead. The trail descends gradually through Ponderosa pine, Gambel oak, and juniper trees. The trail descends steeply just before you arrive at the junction with Winter Cabin Trail in the last quarter mile. Winter Cabin is located about 250 feet down Winter Cabin Trail from the junction of Hog Hill Trail. Water is available at Winter Cabin Spring which normally runs all year.
