Trail Overview
An easier Jeep trail parallel to Devil's Dip rock crawling trail can also be used to access Devil's Dip. Both Devil's Dip rock crawling trail and this one start at Exit 59 from I-40. Devil's Dip goes up the bottom of an unnamed wash, while this one follows easy roads higher above the same wash. Devil's Dip is also called "Serendipity". When Devil's Dip comes out of the rock crawling wash these two trails combine and become an exit. This easier trail runs parallel to the difficult Devil's Dip and actually crosses that trail two times. The two trails combine when Devil's Dip comes out of the wash, and there then are two choices for exits. The alternate exit has a short piece of wash with minor rock crawling and a couple of hills with lots of rocks. The main exit starts off with a narrow, tippy spot. The trail is steep and has quite a bit of erosion. The trail continues to climb until it reaches a saddle 1,200' higher than where you started back at the Interstate.
