Description

Deadman's Pass provides a connection between the Aerie/Cockscomb area and the Mescal/Chuckwagon trails.

The route is fairly flat from the Boynton Canyon trailhead and climbs gradually past the intersection with Mescal. The trail is wider and mostly sand with some rocky and short climbs before it descends to Long Canyon Trail.
