The Bridge Mountain hike begins at the Rocky Gap Summit Trailhead, accessible by
4WD drive only. Hikers can park at the north Willow Springs campground and walk to the summit. Alternatively, hikers can turn North from Highway 160 and drive North on the Lovell Canyon Road and park where the pavement ends. The hike from here to the summit is about and has less elevation gain. The hike climbs over the crest of the
shale formed, north-south oriented Spring Mountain Ranges, and rewards the hiker with panoramic views of the Red Rock Escarpment below. A marked trail along the crest descends to the sandstone escarpment. Here, steep free climbing down a chimney—possible without technical gear—takes the hiker to a narrow neck of rock that separates the drainages of Pine Creek to the south and Icebox Canyon to the north. The hike is marked by cairns that show the route to proceed up toward the base of a cliff, angling left just above the northern drop-off. The hike ascends the slickrock here, in a crack in the rock. After about , the route comes to a point where there is a broad, flat ledge on the left, then continues about several feet to the left where a wider gully climbs to the top of the cliff. This leads up to the natural bridge for which the mountain is named. The bridge itself is the remains of a tinaja, or water tank, that eroded and left a remnant of the side, now a bridge. ==Gallery==
