Special Instructions:
This is a loop trail starting at the Arnett Canyon East End TH, hiking to the Wood Canyon overlook, then continuing to Forest Road 4 to Telegraph Canyon, then along Arnett Canyon and back to the trailhead. There are a few places with scree, so bring your hiking sticks. The website reference if for the Arnett Canyon portion of the hike. Forest Road 4 to the Arnett Canyon Trailhead has been improved, but it is steep so should not be attempted during wet weather. Bring plenty of water and food for a snack and lunch.
