BIG COTTONWOOD OVERLOOK

30th Anniversary

Outdoors with Jesus began the Summer 1986



DESCRIPTION: Be careful crossing the road to the north side of the canyon.
If you would like to see HIDDEN FALLS, a dry trail is found by scrambling around the large rock, counterclockwise. Please remember that this is a Watershed Area. No dogs, no wading, and no washing in the water. This is our drinking water!
MILL B NORTH FORK, begins by going up some Grand Canyon staircase. The first climb is steep & more Intermediate. You'll get some great views of the S Curve as you begin switchbacks. 
You'll drop over the hill and follow a bubbling stream. Huge rocks and forest make this a wonderful setting entering the Mount Olympus Wilderness area.  After climbing more switchbacks, you'll head south to the canyon edge. As the trail turns east, take the second trail leading to the rocks. This is the Big Cottonwood Overlook.
