Comments: 3 days car to car w/Stone Donkey from Rock Springs Bench. This entry point required high clearance 4x4 but made relatively easy approach to both Deer Creek and Stone Donkey. Please note you must find old CCC trail down to Paria to access Deer Creek. Its a great trail but very overgrown

Comment: Day one descended Deer Creek to camp roughly .7 mile before the confluence with the Paria River in 9 hours - new anchors, only one tiny spot of unavoidable water, shin deep. Day two hiked out in about 4 hours. A bit on the hot side, but juniper trees offered some shade on the return hike.
