A couple of the highly used illegal routes which should be avoided include:
- The maze of trails south of 4431 and east of 4431A (the Chimney rock area which has been discussed several times).
- The trail back to "the pools".
- The trail that starts immediately across the illegal road to "the pools" (south side of 4426), heading down the creek and meeting up with 4405 where you would normally make the first creek crossing if you are on the normal route to Chiva Falls.
- The spur trail heading south off of 4417 between the staging area and 3 feathers.
