What's the most remote difficult place to reach in the park?

[attachment=12 Wrote:MojaveGeek pid='79292' dateline='1629920350']Did you go down the Wet Fork (the shorter/steeper route, with the spring) or the Dry Fork (longer, former road route with a sign post part way down)?
Nice walk!

I did more the Wet Fork Trail but not straight down Wet Fork itself as I believe that is dangerously steep.  I followed old Indian trails that you could pick up on Google Earth straight down to Blackwater Spring.  I had been talking to the park Naturalist and at the time neither of us knew if Dry Fork was walkable.  It wasn’t until a bit after the hike that I found the 1900 Topo that shows the road going up Dry Fork and the Trail marked Wet Fork to the Spring. 

I did find a road sign at another point, which was surreal and very cool.
