Cape Falcon Trail

Almost grabbed the hiking boots but figured it wasn't that bad. Lots of deep mud and standing water on the trail right now. We managed to ninja-warrior our way through, but it doubled the normal time. Apart from that, it's a gorgeous winding trail through the woods that overlooks a waterfall and eventually meanders out to the cape. There are plenty of secluded spots on the cape to hang out and take in the views. I highly recommend it, but just take the boots.

Cooper Spur

The drive may seem a little daunting, but it's well worth it. I had no trouble getting my car up the gravel stretch--just take it slow and watch for ruts. I went early and had the entire mountainside to myself. Once you get past the shelter, you can hear the Elliot Glacier creaking and popping. At the end of the trail, if you traverse the ridge that leads to the foot of one of the glaciers near the peak, there's a fantastically smooth rock that's perfect for a mid-afternoon nap. As of 10/15/18, the trail was mostly clear with some snow pack on the last half mile.
