Trough Springs Trail

This trail starts off easy until it begins to descend about 1,100 feet in elevation into Kane Creek Canyon, which is rocky and more difficult. Be sure to look for and follow Cairns along the route, which mark the trail and old cattle route. Hikers are strongly advised to bring water with them.
