Our route, as seen in Google Earth, looking north-east. Our route is light blue and other nearby trails are other colors. We started at the bottom and hiked the loop counterclockwise. There's a bug in Google Earth in this area that makes it look like we climbed down into a rift, then back up again (top of our route), but it's not really there. Even Google screws up once in awhile!

Back at the parking area, there are separate exits for horses and bikes. Which way do hikers go?
