Solome Jug Trail Question

Post by Abuelo »

When doing the Salome Jug how difficult is it to get down into the creek bed/canyon?

Where is a good place to enter (climb down into) the creek bed/canyon?

All comments, suggestions appreciated.

Thanks.

In response to Abuelo's reply:

It's pretty evident when you see it. When you get near the creek, you'll basically be paralleling the creek. You merely enter where the canyon walls become a slope (labeled "drop-in" on map). It's not an issue at all getting into the canyon.
