We started at the San Pedro Vista trailhead and only went in .6 mile when we came to an area covered with snow and could not determine where the trail was. It was a ravine with several feet of snow and did not seem safe to get across. After checking it out thoroughly we reluctantly turn around and went back to out starting point. Our car was parked at General Hitchcock campground. Fortunately some visiting hikers from Colorado gave us a ride!

Left the trailhead at 6:45 am; arrived at Tram Stop 9 at 1:45 p.m.

The trail was easy to follow to Mud Spring. After that there were places that would have been very difficult to find the trail, except for the many, many cairns along the way. We didn't think this was an exceptionally pretty trail, mostly due to fire damage. Even though it's been years since the fire, you can still see dead ferns along the way...and they're usually some of the first plants to come back. But it was an interesting hike with spectacular views....for us it was a good training hike for the North Kaibab trail to be done later this spring.
