Continue on a wide dirt trail for 5 minutes until you reach a bridge crossing Stewart Canyon. From here cross the bridge and head West following Stewart Creek/Canyon until a signed and large junction, stay left at the junction and continue following the creek until you see a large cliff/headwall opposite the creek. From here look closely on the right for a climbers trail that branches off the main trail. Follow this trail to the mouth of Black Feather Canyon.
