Great challenging hike to really get a workout and views. 8 miles out and back, 4,200’ of elevation gain. Bring water and food and wear good hiking shoes/boots. For a less challenging hike, you can go up a little ways and back, and you will still have a workout and great views. You gain elevation quickly on this trail.
