The Manzanita Trail is met again just beyond the saddle, as well as another trail shown on the topo map as ending rather quickly. Another 0.8 miles brings you to the parking lot for the Manzanita Trailhead at South Fork Campground. This log gives the mileage and time to features along the trail from Vincent Gap, along with their altitude. After adjustment, the mileages typically agreed to within 0.1 mile at each point. The mileages are thus probably accurate only to 0.1 mile, but are given to 0.01 mile to prevent adding rounding errors.
Times are from the start of the hike.
Your times may be shorter since Jane and Tom spent a lot of time looking at the plants, views, and fault exposures along the way, and trying to estimate waterfall heights. The altitudes are from the topo map, for features that could clearly be identified there, and from TJC's adjusted altimeter reading for other locations. 6350 Major side canyon. Bigleaf maples knocked over by recent event, resprouting. First of two side canyons.
