Rattled at the Far Side of Mt St Helena

Starts with 10 minutes of trail hiking in the trees; the rest of the hike is on a fire trail with amazing views the whole time.  For some fun class 2/3 scrambling add the trail to the climbing area called The Far Side. This climbing access trail starts halfway up the fire trail at the switchback with The Bubble, a rock that usually has climbers on it.   I did hear a very loud rattlesnake on the climbing access trail, so be careful!
