Did a loop going up Peralta trail to the saddle and down this section back to the Peralta trailhead. Was a great section with some challenge of route finding and negotiating some slick rock. Had views down the valley which added quality. Trail was plain enough to follow with some help with the red line. Much better than the mindless slog retracing the Peralta back to the car. To clarify, up Peralta and down east side Dacite.

This is a great route/loop. Pretty strenuous and challenging but with great features and views. I hiked it anti-clockwise which I would recommend as you scale up the huge dacite slab and come down the steep canyon from West Boulder saddle. If you take it clockwise it is a very steep scramble up to the saddle.
The trail is difficult to follow at times but try and look out for the cairns! All trails included in this route aren’t official USFS trails but are lightly trafficked.
Well worth taking in the Wave Cave too!
