Titanothere Canyon Trail Details
Titanothere Canyon is a moderately strenuous like from Titus Canyon Road to Lostman Spring, with the option of continuing on to Scotty's Castle Road (park cars at both ends to do the through-hike). One benefit of the 12-miles through hike: it's all downhill: 1,700 feet down to the spring, and 4,700 feet to the road. (Of course, if you just turn around at the spring and head back to Titus Canyon Road, it's uphill for 4.5 miles.) The trailhead is 11 miles from the start of Titus Canyon Road, which requires a high-clearance vehicle to drive.
