isn't that a great hike?

a bit less developed than other trails. I've never seen it mentioned on any government website. I go through with pocket saw and prune every couple years or so.

dispersed camping is never allowed on that road from Sherar's Bridge to Mack's Canyon
Yeah, but I was thinking you could go north from Macks Canyon and camp, like Dean said he did recently.

Yeah, north from the Mack's Canyon trailhead and you can camp.

The BLM mentions that hiking is allowed but they don't talk about backpacking one way or the other. It's an undeveloped trail. But many people use it.
