Access Issue: Trails are closed from sunset to 6:00 am. Details

Trails close at sunset. Give yourself enough time to be back at your vehicle (or campsite if you're staying at one) before dark, or the rangers will fine you.

Always visit the Castle Rock State Park website parks.ca.gov/?page_id=538 for fairly current official information.

Description

Start as far left of Small Man Complex as you can, and traverse all the way around to the right of Herpes Simplex. The hardest moves are moving around the corner between Slot Nose and Cotton Mouth. So much fun!
