Starting at Boca Reservoirhead out a calm pavement start before climbing chunkier dirt roads up to the Babbitt Peak fire tower. Reverse the main climb to reach smoother dirt roads for the return home. 

A small spring is just off the road on the return. Look for a large tub to the right off the road. Flow rate is often slow.
