Leading up the the best lookout point on the loop!
At the second creek crossing, the rocks can be slick! - Watch for a split in the trail across the creek.

The trails fork at Gans Creek. If you're doing the Shooting Star Loop, do not cross. Crossing here connects to the Wagonwheel Trailhead.
At the second creek crossing, the rocks can be slick! - Watch for a split in the trail across the creek.
Go straight (north) to complete the loop. Or, go right (east) to follow the #2 blazes.
There are a couple of bluffs off trail that provide excellent views below. This is one of them.
This is the largest of the several overlooks on this stretch.
Columbine grow on the bluff overlooking Gans Creek.
Looking out off of the first bluff you come to, if you take a left at the fork. It doesn’t get much better than this.
Leading up the the best lookout point on the loop!
