To begin, pick up Trail #300 on the west side of the parking lot. Ignore trails branching off to the left in the first mile. At mile .9, you’ll cross a road and continue on the singletrack. The trail climbs one last hill and then widens into a two-track and descends to a T-junction at a dirt road (mile 1.8). Go right and then left on Trail #410, a sandy wash going downhill towards Reynolds Creek.
At mile 2.3, go right on Trail #310 and proceed for a half mile to a junction with Trail #600, the China Ditch trail. Go right and walk upstream along Reynolds Creek for a long mile. At a junction with Trails #510, #601 and #610, go right on #510 and climb out of the canyon.
At mile 4, bear right at a Y junction and stay on #510 to BLM dirt road #37154. Go right and follow the road to the junction with Trail #400. Go left on #400 at mile 5.28 and head back to the trailhead. At the top of the first hill, you can either stay on Trail #400 or branch off on #300 to the right. Both ways return to the start.
