ADDENDUM

As of 2020, this section of the trail has been permanently closed.  Apparently, the forgiving rancher is tired of cleaning up after certain visitors who don't treat the area properly.  A trail has been constructed around this section to bypass the private propery.  It even accesses a previously unvisited waterfall, but now the great poppy garden is no longer available.  Bummer.
