Phoneline Link Trail

Discussion for Phoneline Link Trail—conditions, questions, and the short connector that switchbacks sharply up the side of the canyon to meet Phoneline Trail.

 

Phoneline Link Trail

A steep, sun-exposed link rising from the canyon floor toward the old telegraph route. It’s a direct path—no shade, no hesitation, and usually low traffic. The switchbacks climb fast and hard, asking for steady footing, clear attention, and respect for the loose stone beneath you.
