There is some trail at the beginning and end of this hike but the middle 10 miles can be a brutal bushwhack involving scrambling and bouldering. The individual hikes complete with GPS routes are simply that, a route not a trail. The canyons and washes are subject to change due to floods, growth, and rocks moving. Pick the best way through.

The route as given can be done in either direction with variations.
