Description
This trail is the connector between the trails on the east end of the Pinals to those on the north face. From the Pinal Peak Trailhead, head northeast across the open area to the beginning of the Forest Road (FR) 651C. Follow the trail north, paralleling a fence line. The trail contours around, downhill and out of site of Pinal (Potato Patch) Campground. At about mile 0.4 (halfway from either end) there is a spur trail approximately 100 yards long that runs down from the campground connecting with this trail. The trail continues west, ties into the Sixshooter National Recreation Trail 197 and ends at Ferndell Spring Trailhead.
