The trail runs close to the creek bed, causing trees to be plentiful in the area. This provides shade during the heat of the day while the higher trails in Pinnacles lack the shade.

The trail as it runs through the old creek bed.
The pig fence at the end of the trail signals the end of the hike as you have reached the park boundary.
2.3 miles from the beginning of the trail, you reach the park boundary.
Small wildflowers can be seen on the sides of the trail in the winter.
The narrow trail winds through tall grass in the winter. In the mornings, the grass is wet so make sure you wear appropriate footwear.
