If someone could help me on this, I would really appreciate it. I saw these canyons off the road when I was driving back from another hike the other day, and i wanted to go check it out. It's about a mile or two east from Tortilla Flat, not too far from the second creek crossing. There's a dirt road that goes up to the canyons and that's about all i can really give on where it is. We just went out and followed the creek bed (some pools, but not running at all) and went out a few miles. It was a pretty nice hike and would have been great if there was running water. The one bad thing about it was all the pricker bushes. They were EVERYWHERE, and i got stabbed a bunch of times. Once we got out a few miles and decided we didn't want to battle the prickers anymore, we climed one of the mountains (that's the second to last picture). After that, we headed back and waited for the sunset near the begining of the canyon.
