Just beyond the hoodoos, the trail comes to a junction with the Peekaboo Loop. Then turn right and follow the trail as it heads down a switchbacked slope, passing bristlecone and limber pines along the way. The trail straightens and continues to drop gradually along the west side of a draw. Pink hoodoos line the draw's sides as ponderosa pine, juniper, and manzanita grow in the bottom. The path eventually traverses northwest across the draw and begins a slow ascent across a series of washes, then follows switchbacks up to a tunnel cut into the ridgetop.
Hoodoos decorate the ridgetops as the trail levels off and winds along the slopes.
Other views include Bryce Point and grotto formations to the south of the trail. The trail eventually makes a short ascent and cuts between two hoodoo formations. At the top of the climb, the rifts and caverns of the Silent City can be seen ahead to the north. The trail begins to descend at the base of The Cathedral. It then straightens out and follows the upper left side of a draw, with Boat Mesa rising on the northern horizon.
