After all the winter rain, the road to the trailhead was completely washed out, so we had to park just off Northshore Road and hike from there. It was easy enough to hike along the road, passing remnants of the mining past, until you drop into Lovell Wash. From that point most of the way through the narrows, there was water flowing in the wash bottom, which added an unusual touch to this normally dry hike. Some of the rock in the walls looks like (I kid you not) bacon.
We saw 2 large groups of people, but they were headed out just as we headed in, so we had the place to ourselves. Although the narrows are short, this is a very worth-while day hike. You can continue as far as you want beyond the narrows. You could make this a backpack trip by just hiking until you feel like camping. |
