When you say it gets dicey, what do you mean. I can definitely walk the 2.5 miles but with 2 knee replacement I’m not comfortable climbing large rocks. What a helpful video! We are going up to Overgaard Monday.... will check it out!

Awesome! It’s beautiful out there. It does get a little rocky and you may want to be careful if you have had some knee surgeries. But the first half of the trail is very well maintained and very scenic. No matter how far back you hike you’ll enjoy yourself! If you hike down to the old homestead be prepared for a pretty steep hike into the canyon. Very happy the video was useful! Have fun!
