Description

This trail starts at the same parking area as the popular Finger Rock Trail #42 so be sure to catch the right for the Pontatoc trails. The trail starts with a number of wash crossings before it climbs to a signed junction (take a left to stay on Pontatoc Trail #410). From here, the trail continues a generous climb up Pontatoc Canyon.
