Description

This newer trail connects the upper and lower parking lots, connecting the Overlook Loop and Canyon Rim Trail with the bottom of Dream Weaver/The Maze/Darkside of the Moon.

Although not technical in nature, as an uphill it is a bit of a grind. As a downhill, it's a hoot, with lots of rollers and smaller jumps.

Expect nice views to the west. This trail faces north, so ice might form during the winter season.

Can be pretty muddy at spots, some loose rocks you may have to avoid or stop and move to the side
