Revision: Pushwall loop
Due to the heat forecasted for Saturday we are changing the hike from Art Smith to the Pushwalla Loop. We are starting the hike at 7AM. Meet at Lakeview then. Make sure you bring 2L of water as it will still be warm.
After parking on the west side of Highway 74, across the street from the National Monument Visitor Center, we will hike a half mile across a wash to the base of an 2 mile steep switchback leading to the top of a ridge overlooking the posh Big Horn Golf Club andDevelopment. We will take breaks along the way to admire the views. Continue along the ridge, passing the junction with the Hopalong Cassidy Trail, until reaching the first oasis about 2 miles into the hike, approximately 1 1/4 hour from the trailhead. Bring plenty of water. Poles are recommended
- Distance 3 miles
- Elevation gain 450’
- Pace Moderate
