Route Recorded on Route Scout Popup | MapDEX

This hike from the hieroglyphics trail head was long but easy. Most of the elevation gain was going up to Wave Cave and it was the harder part of the hike. I have hiked this previously when I first saw the Wave Cave from the Lost Goldmine Trail, but it required a lot of bushwhacking, fence jumping and boulder hopping. I found it a lot easier to go to the Carney Springs gate and then approach the Cave. There are two caves. As you are facing them the Wave Cave is on the right. We also went over to the other cave. The distance is really about 12 miles as I didn't turn on Route Scout until we were about 1+ mile out.

Named place
