Half a mile further along Hwy-157 from Mary Jane Falls, the
Cathedral Rock Trail sets off from a roadside parking lot. Starting at 7600
feet and climbing a further thousand feet along a rough but not ery steep
footpath, the three-mile round trip can be pretty grueling for anyone unused to
such eleations.
En route to the top of the promontory known as Cathedral
Rock, you have to circle around Mazie
Canyon, by way of denuded hillsides cleared by countless winter aalanches.
You're eventually rewarded with views all the way back down Kyle Canyon - though
not as far as Las Vegas - as well as onward to Charleston Peak.
