Hero: Behind the Rocks Overlook
small-sr Icon

This is a short, looping side trail off the Upper Hunter Rim trail, which goes out to a spectacular overlook on a rocky point along the rim of Hunter Canyon, looking across to the stunning rock fins of the Behind the Rocks Wilderness Study Area. Aside from that rocky point, the rest of the trail is easy sand. While there are no established campsites with fire rings along this trail, there are a couple of sheltered flat areas at the base of sandstone pinnacles that would make good campsites.
