WARNING: Wildflower #4 is NOT child-friendly. Do NOT attempt the hike with children, or if you are not a confident hiker. Portions of the trail are very narrow and/or very close to the edge of the gorge. Numerous hikers have died falling into this gorge. Off trail explorations are strongly discouraged. Again, be warned that the route to box #4 contains many dangers if one does not pay attention to one's surroundings.

That said, it's a very lovely trail with beautiful views, and those watching their step and not taking unreasonable risks should enjoy their hike in safety. If you have any questions about the terrain, please do not hesitate to contact me in advance of your search.

In addition, this article on gorge safety is a must-read before you set out:
