The Shepard Creek Trail is very hard to follow, but one of the more interesting parts of the hike is that the trail skirts the under-part of these overhanging cliffs.

Believe it or not, this is the entrance to Smuggler's Gap from the ridge trail (running mid-left to lower-right in the photo.)  The entrance leaves the trail going straight ahead.

This is the sign you're looking for if starting the trail from the canyon bottom.

Of historical interest is this pump that can be found on the Christmas tree farm along the hike. Note the date of 3-12-51, if I'm not mistaken.

A slimy waterfall that's probably more interesting in spring. Pizza-the-hut would feel right at home.

Mind the warning here about taking the right fork on Indian Annie Trail. It gets very steep and a bit exposed and washed out at times. I like coming up that trail, but not going down it.

One of the waterfalls. It's probably much more interesting in the spring time.

Imagine yourself roasting s'mores here at the camp in Pretty Valley. Pack it in, pack it out.

Plenty of room for tents at Hell Hole Camp.

This is where the Davis Creek trail to Bountiful Peak starts to become overgrown enough that you might think it's the wrong way, but it isn't; it's the right way.

Maybe a fun boulder problem alongside the trail between El Cap Rock and Pretty Valley.

I always thought this was a fun section of the trail because it had you hiking/running over rocky slabs.

El Cap Rock.

Easy access to the top of El Cap Rock.  Don't fall off the other side. There are bolts for TR-ing the other side, if you want.

A view of Pretty Valley atop Prayer Rock.

Climb this to get on top of Prayer Rock.

The remnants of a very, very old tree, long since dead. It's much wider at the base than any other tree around.
