Canyons are inherently risky. Flash floods occur without notice on sunny days. Technical skills & surrounding topography knowledge required yet does not eliminate risk.
Overview Easy non-technical scramble down the canyon along a perennial creek under normal water flow conditions. Hike Hike begins at the Noon Creek picnic grounds and heads up west on the Noon Creek trail for approx 0.75 miles until it reaches the Round the Mountain signed junction. Head left (south) on the RTM trail for a short distance down to the creek where you then drop into the canyon and take it down along the creek for approx 0.75 miles until it reaches the Swift Trail (Hwy 366). A short walk down the Swift Trail takes you back to the Noon Creek picnic grounds to complete a loop. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
