Description:
5.9 miles, 853 ft of elevation gain/loss. Average hike time is 2.5 hrs. This hike is considered a moderately challenging route but comes with possible wildflowers. It also comes with a Mtn view before descending into the Canyon. As you hike into the canyon you will most likely feel the temperature become warmer as you pass young Ponderosa trees and manzanita bushes. The trail ducks past a series of cliff overhangs where the creek has undercut ancient lava flows from the volcanoes of the Three Sisters. Best hiked March thru Oct
