Route Description for Mescal Mountain Loop Hike
The Mescal Mountain Loop is an enjoyable hike suitable for all skill levels near Boynton Canyon and Long Canyon. The route is very scenic with both impressive canyons to admire as you hike. This trail can be extended using interconnecting routes if you want.
From the Long Canyon Trailhead, take Long Canyon Trail up along the east side of Mescal Mountain. Where the route splits, stay left onto Deadman’s Pass Trail.

Go left here, wrapping closely around the southern base of Mescal Mountain.
