Here's a few shots from the walk down the "Wet Trail" of BLKH2O. At the time I hiked it (Feb 2020) the DV Naturalist said he had no info if the "Dry Trail" down the other fork was hikeable. Thanks to everyone on here, we know that it probably is. But we don't have anyone that has actually done it correct?
The old 1900 map is also available as a layer on Gaia.
Part of the old trail in the hanging valley around 5000ft.
Headed North out of the hanging valley.
Headed out onto the ridge on the North side of the spring.
Further out on the Ridge. Hard to see in the photos but there's a distinct trail most of the way. Sometimes several as not all the burros have the sense to follow the old original trail. All of which can be seen on satellite, which is how I mapped out my route.
Part way down to the spring.
Part of the old trail in BLKH2O wash.
One of the last remaining signs that hasn't been stolen yet.
