Obtain a permit form the Navajo Nation Parks & Recreation Department to backpack on Navajo Tribal Lands

Need to Know

Getting to the trailhead, the last 4.5 miles are dirt road, and you'll want a higher clearance car since you have to drive over a lot of rocky sections and two dry washes.
Request a permit here: navajonationparks.org/permi…

Runner Notes

There are no technical areas of the route, but climbing over passes and slickrock are required.
