The Echo Canyon trail leads into a small box canyon that very well indeed does produce a reverberating echo of sometimes the slightest sound.This canyon passes by rock cliffs and hosts a large variety of colorful wildflowers during the spring. We will take a short trip off the main trail to view a petroglyph site.

The trail follows the canyon floor and crosses the creek multiple times.

After the hike please join us for the Western Slope Group social event.

We will meet at the Devils Kitchen Picnic Area parking lot near the east entrance to the Colorado National Monument at 10:00 am.
