| no partners | | This was actually another workout hike, looping the Pontatoc with Finger Rock, but I've listed it relative to the Garnett Trail #411 - formerly the "Pontatoc Ridge Trail", and the Pontatoc Trail #410 - formerly the "Pontatoc Canyon Trail", so as to clarify a few things.
First off, quite a few people (already on trail) seem to think that the new section of trail, between the old Pontatoc Canyon and the Finger Rock Trail, is the Garnet Trail. Seems these people do zero research before wandering out into the desert. Garnet is simply the new name of the Pontatoc Ridge trail, with no alteration to the trail itself. Just wanted to clear that one up.
Second, and more importantly, the new and improved Pontatoc Trail has been significantly extended - in fact more than doubling it's prior length, connecting it's northern termination with the Finger Rock, near Linda Vista Saddle. The stats for the Pontatoc Trail are now 4.14 mi. & 2,564 ft. per my most recent track. I'll post a Pontatoc Trail track related to this trip, should anyone care to ogle it for future use. |
