McKittrick Creek comes to the surface.
Now the creek has gone underground again.

The abandoned Hunter Line Cabin. Ranch workers used to stay here.
This is the end of the line, all right. The National Park Service has closed South McKittrick Canyon to entry by the public.
Picnic area between the Hunter Line Cabin and the Grotto. They're only a few hundred feet apart, actually.
