About the series:
Parking is at the North East corner of Lake Hughes Rd and the Warm
Springs Forest Road. We started by hiking west on the forest Road.
About three miles up, the road turns to the south and heads for the
Warm Springs Fire Tower and the
Above All it's Warm cache. The hike to the
fire tower and back is about fifteen miles total, but at this
point, there is a single track trail that drops down into the
canyon and brings you back to the forest road, about 2/3rds of
the way back to the beginning. The total distance of just our
loop is six miles. Be advised that there are numerous stream
crossings and some minor overgrowth. Despite the stream, we saw
no Poison Oak, dormant or otherwise.
