The last 3.0 miles of Tremont Road are closed in winter, so hike is best from spring to fall. After heavy rains an unbridged crossing of Indian Flats Prong could be a wade. While possible for experienced hikers to do this trip in a day, it is not recommended. Spend 2 nights, staying at Campsite 28 the first night and Derrick Knob Shelter the second night.
