Definately take a ton of water to tackle this park. It's an enjoyable park but is often overlooked being so near Palo Duro Canyon. This trail allowed for various nice outlooks along the way. My mistake was hiking the trail in reverse. This park is full of several steep grades. The trails are built to help the hiker with conquering these grades. Doing the trail in reverse, I ended up fighting the extreme grades in certain areas. It was a challenge but we had a good time with the canyons.
