Hiking

One of the many notable peaks in the area, Black Bull Peak rises to 8371 feet above Bull Canyon and is framed by views of Owl Canyon to the north, Buckskin Canyon to the south, and Cottonwood Canyon to the southeast. The rocky summit rises above the pines and climbing up it affords views of some of the higher peaks and cliffs of the San Francisco Mountains.
