The trail follows No Name Creek and the hillsides along the creek, with the first 1.5 miles being a fairly gentle grade. The trail then leaves the creek with a number of switchbacks and continues along the hillside for 1.5 miles, crossing three smaller streams, before returning to and crossing No Name Creek. If you can find the aqueduct you can follow this to Grizzly Creek-FDT 2065 which will lead you back to the Interstate at the Grizzly Creek trailhead and picnic area. The trail returns to the hillside for another 1.5 miles before again crossing No Name Creek. The trail forks to the right, this trail is East No Name– FDT 1848. Most of the trail is very rocky with grades of 20-30 percent. There are a number of good camping sites along the upper reaches of the trail and water is available along the entire trail route. The trail offers excellent views of Glenwood Canyon, which is home to a wide variety of wildlife including mule deer, porcupines, mountain lions, squirrels, and bighorn sheep. The creek bed is dense with deciduous trees and shrubs which attract numerous species of song birds.
