Great day for a hike!

headed out early, 1:30 hours drive to the trailhead. part of the road is unpaved and it gets more sandy after you take a right (or left, depends where you’re coming from) to the trailhead.

We were the only ones on the trail and only saw another group as we approached the end around noon.

Beautiful views, tough climb. Last ascend is challenging with the trail disappear and reappears so you need to look out for the trail. someone left a few very useful trail markers.

I recommend to bring long pants and walking sticks especially for the descend.

Great hike!
