Pumpkin Trail Bull Basin Loop(Kendrick Mtn) -11 miles

Hello Psycho Hikers!,
This hike is a first for the Psycho Hikers. I haven't done this one since 2011. We will ascend Pumpkin Trail and hit Kendrick Tower and descend Bull Basin trail back to the car. Approx 3100 feet of elevation gain. Lets take advantage of the great weather while we have it! There will be overgrown spots so plan accordingly.

Directions:
From I-40 exit #178 in Parks (approximately 16.2 miles):

• Begin north on N Parks Rd for approximately 0.2 mile,
• Turn left onto E Old Route 66 and follow for approximately 0.6 mile,
• Turn right onto N Spring Valley Rd and follow for approximately 10.4 miles,
• Continue onto Forest Road 144/Pumpkin Center Rd and follow for approximately 1.8 miles,
• Bear right to continue on Pumpkin Center Rd (becomes Forest Road 171) and follow for 1.8 miles,
• Continue straight on Forest Road 171 for approximately 1.1 miles,
