Trail Overview
American Basin is a regular little Jeep trail - less than a mile long. It would not constitute having a feature by itself, except it has fantastic wildflowers in July. If you enjoy wildflowers, make your way here in July. You may have to fight the crowd.

Gorgeous little trail. Starts off with a nice little water crossing and near the middle there is a semi technical obstacle, but I saw a few crossover SUVs at the end of the trail… so it’s easily do able. Easy in and out trip, worth it!
