Painted Cove and and irrigation pond outside the monument boundary.

A bench sits off to the right side of the trail, allowing you to take in the views of Painted Ridge and the surrounding hills.
Large rocks that have rolled down the hill sit on either side of the trail.
The trail climbs to the top of this hill. You can also see the box that contains the trail ledger off to the right.
The pained hills and surrounding hills stretch out before you.
The trail is a mix of gravel, clay and rocks. This trail is narrow, so take care passing other hikers.
