on the trail
Hike the Tubal Cain Mine trailhead, the first mile of the trail passing under some 10-foot-tall rhododendrons, which present a lovely display in the early spring. At about 3 mi, a boot track to the left heads up to some World War II aircraft wreckage in Tull Canyon (1.25-mile round trip), and at 3.5 mi and 4,350 ft the trail passes the site of the old Tubal Cain mine, now just some wooden pipes, rusty wire and equipment.
