Description

This trail has some interesting botanical species near Portal Spring, then it begins it's steep climb, and doesn't stop until you reach the top. The views are exhilarating, especially the switchbacks of the PCT across the canyon. Several waterfalls are visible in the distance nestled along the steep terrain within the canyon.
