These features are on Mynydd Llangatwg, a mountain in South Wales where they formed during glacial times. The ground has eroded and filled in so that some of the rings are missing but others still show in patterns much like tipi rings. The feature in the back ground is a Neolithic mound.

This is a tiny, rare and fragile riparian microhabitat in the arid Pryors. Such habitats can have great biodiversity dependent on a narrow range of environmental conditions. This includes species from plants to specialized aquatic invertebrates. For example Wyoming sullivantia (Sullivantia hapemanii) grows here and in a few similar places nearby but nowhere else in the world. This unique ecosystem is highly vulnerable to damage by human activity. Please do not walk or climb on the mossy wet dome or waterfall areas. If each visitor “accidentally” damages a few plants, there will soon be none. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/4fde447e-6af7-4286-817f-c1f040fc7e72/Map-Upper+Layout+Trailhead.jpg Upper Layout Creek Trail https://pryormountains.org/-archaeology/vision-quest-structures daily 0.75 2022-09-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/f28edfed-5279-431d-a707-0f237e13884e/A-VQ-Wind+Spirit+VQ-Loendorf.jpg Vision Quest Structures The rock wall feature in the photograph is an example of a u-shaped vision quest structure.

This is an easy 1/3 mile walk descending about 200 feet elevation. Because of the limestone geology, which allows underground drainage, there is little surface water in the Pryors. Crooked Creek is the largest of the few streams in the Pryors. This delightful hike takes you to a riparian landscape/ecosystem which is unusual in the Pryors. This is also #6 of the nine special botanical spots described in A Botanical Guide to Special Places in the Pryor Mountains which describes the moist and lush riparian plant community near the creek. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/1634006108123-9P7YERCT1GB4O938EN1T/image-asset.jpeg Crooked Creek Access Trail https://pryormountains.org/hiking/hikers-haven-loops daily 0.75 2024-07-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/ca3ecfce-95f3-4ea0-889a-c234fedf80b7/RockyJuniperArea+Map2022.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/82e59902-0d66-46ca-a213-e468609480a3/RJ+P1060462+PS+Hunnes.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/0a86f096-58f6-4c78-926c-492cfa045a73/TripleJunction-DSC_0286-dw.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/2626962d-a77c-4de3-bd2b-061eb6b0899a/RJT-P1050603-TheRock-dw.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/d9477787-0aee-4cd9-9526-b09a74153882/RJTRockSign-P1050584-dw.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/3e093daa-3dfb-4107-9b30-628bc9353424/DSC_0284+The+Junction+Ss.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/f23e3c1d-f9ef-40f6-8b7a-94773608ce31/BS+P1060519+T+%26+Cairn.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/ad6680af-db82-4b04-be0b-e3989ce0569a/BS+P1060518+T+Junction+%26+arrow.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/02326b85-15d4-421f-9b64-b94d85dec9ae/BS+P1060506+Pipe.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/c178e6a5-7d4c-41b9-b253-936d6a38683a/BS+P1060513+Pipe.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/9d119c23-6f5e-4299-8d13-7d44b470024a/RJ+P1060476+PS+Bear+Tr+Cairn.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/9d595183-da9f-4dd8-a3b4-6ecfa93afcc5/GoogleEarth+Switchbacks+2+Ss.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/764b8684-bcdc-490f-8096-260f023edad0/Hiker%27sHavenLoop+Access+Map2022.jpg https://pryormountains.org/hiking/lost-water-canyon daily 0.75 2023-06-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/b73bd14d-0634-4eda-b281-8c82d68099b6/48+9-93+3+Ss.jpg Lost Water Canyon Rim Hike Lost Water Canyon looking north from Peregrine Point https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/0da80b3e-adc4-41cd-9fb3-8c3bcd5620e5/49+9-93+12+Ss.jpg Lost Water Canyon Rim Hike Margaret camping southwest from Peregrine Point (dw photos) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/7d9f84dd-9511-4ed7-8dd6-1ff30d897e17/50+9-93+18+Ss.jpg Lost Water Canyon Rim Hike View southwest from Peregrine Point down Lost Water Canyon toward Crooked Creek Canyon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/1633981536578-TMQIAI8K1X64Y97V19N8/P1040755+Ss.jpg Lost Water Canyon Rim Hike - A helpful landmark is a small and isolated cluster of trees on the left (north) side of Pryor Mountain Road a couple hundred feet past the trailhead. You may need to stop and get out to see the old two-track trail dropping steeply from the road down the hill to the southeast. It is not legal for motor vehicles. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/805cbae5-5229-4b7b-b47d-018a458ff9c3/Lost+Water+Hike+Map+2.jpg Lost Water Canyon Rim Hike

Peak Hikes Click to download a printable pdf of the Demijohn Flat - Penney Peak Hiking Guide. We recommend taking a printed version of the guide, with photos, on your first hikes in this area. Demijohn Flat Trail Network: These trails provide options to explore Demijohn Flat, view Crooked Creek and its canyon, and/or connect with trails in the Penney Peak area. A car shuttle allows a one-way hike from the Demijohn Trailhead down either the Chugwater Trail (and a possible side trip to the top of Penny Peak), or down the Piper trail to the Penney Trailhead. It is a 5 mile one-way hike. Another alternative (without car shuttle) is from the Penney Trailhead up the Piper Trail to Demijohn Flat, down the Chugwater Trail, (again with a possible side trip to Penney Peak), and out the Gulley Trail back to the Penney Trailhead. It is a 3 ½ mile loop hike. Penney Peak: The panoramic view from Penney Peak includes the SE face of Big Pryor Mountain, the SW slopes of East Pryor Mountain, a dramatic basin of 250 million year old, deep red Chugwater shale and sandstone, the Crooked Creek Valley, and the Bighorn Mountains. Below we suggest two off-trail routes: the Gulley and Ridge Routes. They can be combined to make a loop hike. It is 2 miles round-trip. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60b0fe3fca00cd68c506f2eb/1632625023613-ZK977B5A8CTMRMJ1M9WX/1+P1040369+s.jpg Demijohn Flat and Penney Peak Hikes 1.
