Meet at the Lower Spring Creek trailhead SW of Montrose on Dave Wood Road at 830am. High clearance 4WD would be a good idea to carpool to the top trailhead at Simms mesa, otherwise we'll have to add a bit of mileage.

Well behaved leashed dogs welcome as there is cactus along the trail. Expect mud and possibly snow patches at the start. I will be bringing my small dog.

Less than 9 miles and 1900' loss and the gain is, of course, at the end of the hike getting out of the canyon.
