Introduction[edit]
Approach[edit]
Set off on the Cathedral Rock trailhead. When the trail splits, go to the left (e.g. Little Falls approach). When the trail ends, cross-country traverse to Mezzo canyon.
Descent[edit]
Exit[edit]
After the last drop, look for a use trail down canyon left. Follow this to the Mary Jane trailhead.
Red tape[edit]
If early in the season be sure to call the ranger station to see if the trailhead is open. If there is snow it is likely to be closed.
