MidSoles Hike:   SMITH ROCK HOMESTEAD TRAIL

When: Wednesday, September 24, 7:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. 

Meet at 7:00 a.m. at the SCF Church parking lot at 18139 Cottonwood Rd to carpool or meet at 8:15 a.m. at the trailhead. Bring $5 for the driver if carpooling.

Description:

4.8 miles round trip with multiple options to shorten. 250 ft elevation. Trail stays low along the Crooked River. Park at the far northern end and locate the trail at the apex of the turn-around. Descend a short section of switchbacks to the river and turn left to go toward the center of the park. Within a half mile, you ’ll pass by the footbridge. Instead of crossing, keep straight along the southern side of the river onto the Canyon Trail. This is a wonderful route for both hiking and photography as it offers so many angles of the impressive southern side of the rock formations.  Best hiked Spring & fall
