This is a beautiful, well groomed and well marked trail. The trailhead is just after the Indian Cove entrance to JT, and it takes you across a rolling plain of desert brush and large rocks, then into a sandy rock canyon. Finally, a few switchbacks take you to the top of the canyon. We only went to the summit (3.5 miles in) and did not go through to the park but rather came back to Indian Cove. A lovely hike.
