Wilderness Considerations: As with any Wilderness trails, please be prepared for trails that have received little to no maintenance; have a map and compass and know how to use them, and have the ability to be self-sufficient as these are truly some of the remotest areas in the Wasatch Mountains.

- No mechanized or motorized equipment (including mountain bikes).
- Group size limit of 15 but 8 or less is recommended.
- No shortcutting trail switchbacks.
- Campfires and wood gathering for fires are discouraged.
