A relatively flat trail that explores a somewhat shaded and cooler canyon floor. For the more adventurous- don’t think Boynton is a sleeper. Those who are comfortable exploring off trail can find amazing ruins and rock features. Do not attempt if you aren’t familiar and comfortable with off trail travel!
