This narrow section of the trail leads you from one peak up to McKittrick Ridge. There are steep drop-offs on both sides of the trail. High winds can gust through the canyon, so exercise caution. (Photo by Blaze)

There is a place on the trail where you walk through a rocky notch that takes you from one side of the canyon to the other. (Photo by Blaze)

The Hunter Line Shack is located near The Grotto. In the background, you can see the massive McKittrick Ridge. (Photo by Blaze)

The Grotto is a nice, small cave about 6.8 miles (roundtrip distance). (Photo by Blaze)

Pratt Cabin is about 4.8 miles roundtrip distance. It is usually closed, but it will sometimes be open if the park has enough volunteers to staff it. (Photo by Blaze)

Sorry for the blurry image...This is the trailhead at Dog Canyon Campground. GREAT place to tent camp; lots of solitude and shade; flush toilets and water available. (Photo by aggiehiker92)

Sorry, no picture of the lodge, but I forever love that park bench!!! (Photo by aggiehiker92)

The view from McKitterick Ridge was outstanding. It is hard to get to, but well worth the view and solitude. (Photo by aggiehiker92)
