Distance: 21 km
Elevation Gain: 424 m (1391 ft)
Time: 6.5 hours
Difficulty: Easy
This route follows a horse trail along Foxy Creek and then up to the alpine plateau of Auston Pass in the Blackstone Range of Tombstone Territorial Park. This would be a long day hike to and from the pass, and it is better suited as an overnight/multi-day trip so that you can explore the area around the pass (see extended hiking options below). The views are stunning along the entire route. This pass is also used to access the Blackstone River Valley and Syenite Lakes to the south.

This is one of the coolest valleys to hike down in Tombstone! Awesome views of the cloudy range at the end of the valley and a lot of wildlife (past few years there has been a grizz frequenting the valley). A heads up that during the fall this area is heavily used for hunting both by the outfitters ...
