The hardest part of this hike is finding the continuation of the Hog
Heaven Trail after you reach the trailhead at the Twin Buttes, High on
the Hog and Hog Heaven Trail Junctions. The hiker will want to follow
the rock terrace, but the trail enters the woods about 100 feet from the
junction trail sign.

Hog Heaven Trail Leads South into Woods. Note the Trail Sign
in the Tree.
