Description

Added by leisa eastman

amazing views along the way. nice exercise - def get your heart pumping. one side you saw for miles of flat and the other side you saw mountains.

starting at around 5500 ft you will climb to 8100 feet over gravel dirt and rocks. well marked trail. you gain around 2400 ft up before you do the same descent. the first mile is a gentle incline and the next 2.5 miles is pretty steep. the descent is rocky and will def make you pay attention hiking/jumping over the small to large rocks. great challenge and super fun. weather was phenomenal in august.
