Description

Get amped for this trail, the most "out-there" route at Electric Hills. Access is from Shock Therapy, in a grove of scrub oak at the bottom of Linscott Canyon. A quick climb out of the canyon leads to flow in and out of drainages, some ledge drops, scenic cruising along the rimrock, then a steep descent to Power Bill trail. This trail is way more fun going south to north than the other way. The steepness and a rock drops would make this a grunt of a climb going the other way.
