This is the Map Sign at the start of the trail. I'm not sure why the trails that leave from Lost Dutchman aren't on it, but
I'm guessing it's all the trails that you could get to from that spot .I have left it full size from the camera. If you click to or download the
full-size version, then zoom in, the trail labels are clearly visible.
Note how small of a portion the Peralta Trail is. I can understand now how people can get lost, and if unprepared, get into a lot of trouble.
That being said, I still think that reality show is ridiculous. I could just image the announcer as I started down the trail, "And there goes
another hiker into the hot forbidding mountains, heading for near certain death."
