A friend from work had seen some of my pictures of the Butterfly Trail and the wreckage of the jet that crashed in the Catalina's in the 50's and wanted to go check it out. We parked at the trail head across from Soldier Camp and hiked approximately 2.5 miles to the area near Novio Spring and left to trail to explore to remains of the aircraft. Chris made it a point to search the area and look at every piece.

We ate lunch next to creek that had just enough water in it to create some nice water sounds and then returned the way we came.

The trail was in good shape and appears to be getting plenty of recent use.
