“Short and steep, this trail is a fair alternate to Rough Trail for climbing out of Martin's Fork. ”

Description

D. Boon Hut Trail is named for a carving found in a rock house near the lower end of the trail. The site is preserved behind a chainlink fence, as is a rock with petroglyphs near the upper end of the trail.

This trail is comparable in distance and elevation gain as Rough Trail from the intersection with D. Boon Hut and the Grays Arch trailhead.
