Cataract Pass

The first day goes over Nigel Pass and Cataract Pass. This remote trail is beautiful. It gets little maintenance so there will be some interesting sections with trees across the trail.

Pictographs

While following the Cataract Creek you will get to see a big boulder with some Pictographs. There is little known about these but they are genuine! You can make up a story from what you see.

pinto lake

On Day two or three you get to see Pinto Lake and go for a dip! Definitely worth the effort. This last nights campsite is next to the lake so you will have plenty of time to enjoy the scenery and get ready for the last day and the Sunset Pass.
