U-Bar and Barbershop canyon
Posted: Jul 25 2011 9:25 pm
Saturday - drive up to the southern Barbershop trailhead accessed from fr139 and backpack along the Barbershop trail, connecting to the U-Bar trail, taking it north for about 7 miles on the first day. Plan to camp at the upper end where U-Bar crosses Barbershop canyon in a lush, quiet setting.
day 2, we are going to use the off trail route going south down Barbershop canyon to reach our vehicles, about a six mile trek with very little human activity.
this is similar to the east side cabin loop, but half on and half off trail. no difficult scrambling or anything, but there may be downed trees, grapevines, and water crossings that will make it a bit of slower going than the super highway that is the U-Bar.
treats in Pine await us at the Rimside Grill on sunday afternoon.
you down?
