Yeager Canyon Trail on the west slope of Mingus Mountain offers fine views of Lonesome Valley, the Prescott Valley area, and the Bradshaw Mountains. The trail starts in ponderosa pine but at lower elevations below the rim stays mostly in pinyon pine and juniper. There is a nice riparian bottom and deciduous hardwoods along the portion of the trail that parallels Highway 89A for about 0.7 miles in Yeager Canyon. This trail is in good condition, having been maintained during 1990.
This is a difficult 2.4-mile trail. The trail receives moderate use and takes about one hour to hike.
