Best trail in Chuckawalla, really cool climb, best done as out-n-back. The scenery on this trail is some of the best in St. George. It is a fairly popular hiking trail as well, so make sure to be courteous. When you get to top ridge you can head back down for an easier downhill, or head down the Paradise Rim trail for a bit more rowdy descent.
