A scenic loop hike to the interior with a chance to see the unique island scrub-jay.

Hike off trail into the right (or northwest) fork of Scorpion Canyon to see the island scrub-jay, but be prepared for extremely rocky conditions.

Distance: 4.5 miles (round trip from Scorpion Beach)
Difficulty: Moderate to strenuous
