Hell's Gate Trail #37 is rarely hiked from end to end. It is more commonly hiked from the north trailhead near Little Green Valley east of Payson or from the south trailhead near Smoky Hollow west of Young.
There are no loop options, so completing the trail will require an out-and-back hike or a shuttle that takes most drivers a minimum of 2 hours of driving between the two trailheads.
When hiking several trails on a single "hike", log it with a generic name that describes the hike. Then link the trails traveled, check out the example.
WARNING! Hiking and outdoor related sports can be dangerous. Be responsible and prepare for the trip. Study the area you are entering and plan accordingly. Dress for the current and unexpected weather changes. Take plenty of water. Never go alone. Make an itinerary with your plan(s), route(s), destination(s) and expected return time. Give your itinerary to trusted family and/or friends.
