The Yellow Knolls trail winds through a beautiful valley below a series of uplifted yellow rock domes from whence it gets its name.
The initial stretch of trail heads through a wide-open field on a narrow track alternating between packed dirt and sand sections. Then, the trail "descends into a valley and curves around this first mountain, taking you out onto the yellow stone, where you can explore the open rock landscape," writes Lana Law on PlanetWare.com. "This is the highlight of the hike, but the trail continues on, ascending to a high point for a view over the surrounding hills and rock formations," she continues.
During the spring, this area is a popular spot for viewing desert wildflowers. If you come to view the flowers, be sure to take only pictures and leave only footprints. Don't touch the flowers!
