Resupply options

Stagecoach Trails RV Park is located 4.5 miles south of Scissors Crossing on County Route S2. The town of Julian is located 12 miles west.

Water cache

There is usually a prominent water cache beneath the highway bridge at Scissors Crossing, which is maintained by the same trail angels that stock the 3rd Gate Water Cache. Thank them if you see them, or leave them a few bucks. Without these two caches hikers would have a 35 mile water carry from Rodriguez Fire Tank to Barrel Spring.
