Creek to a junction with the

Limekiln Creek.
Skirting the west bank of the West Fork, the main trail continues straight, turns
north, then crosses the creek on a
wooden bridge
(0.3 mile, 170'). A minute farther a
split rail fence marks the site of the large stone-and-steel
kilns
(0.4 mile, 240'), built
at the base of a natural limestone deposit. Take a moment to explore the ruins before
returning the way you came. Please don't hike off-trail, as canyon walls are steep,
poison oak is abundant, and the kilns may be unstable.
