My wife and I hiked a little bit of this on Sunday. We followed the wash to the "easily recognized narrow jeep trail exiting the left side", which the description designates as Mark 3. We followed it up to the ridge, but came upon a gate and fence which said "Private Property" and "No Trespassing" (separate signs). We decided not to go through.

We backtracked up the wash to another jeep trail, but this one took us pretty far away from Mark 4.

It's a beautiful area though; just wish we wouldn't have come across the private property signs.

Great hike into a remote part of the Greenbacks. Thanks to the great directions originally posted by ssk44, we managed to stay on trail even when the actual trail seemed to be the least logical choice. Although this area hasn't seen precipitation in awhile, both Tin House and Cherry Creek springs are still flowing quite well. Tin House Spring is a much nicer area to call camp but going all the way to end of the trail is worth the views. The trail up the switchbacks and down the other side of the mesa is in pretty rough shape. Nothing but ruts and ankle-twisting rocks, but outside of this, the trail is in great shape. Look forward to exploring this area some more.

Flowing but not as well as Tin House.
