Land Owner
From the information kiosk, take the wide sandy Ancient Juniper Trail leading left. The trail undulates through a landscape of lava outcroppings vegetated with sagebrush, rabbitbrush, and bitterbrush with clumps of fescue and wheatgrass. The trail wanders through this desert landscape and eventually drops to the Flatiron Rock-Ancient Juniper Trail Junction.
