Description

Deadmans Pass provides a connection between the Aerie/Cockscomb area and the Mescal/Chuckwagon trails.

The route is fairly flat from the Boynton Canyon trailhead and climbs gradually past the intersection with Mescal. The trail is wider and mostly sand with some punchy, rocky, quick climbs before it descends to Long Canyon Trail.

Super-sweet downhill from east to west... Can't imagine heading the opposite direction. Would rate it black in that case... 1.3mi

If you are heading from Mescal to Long Canyon this is a difficult uphill. Not sure how it got rated so easy. Big uphill steps so be prepared. 1.3mi
