Also on this hike
The washboard on the road was really bad – it destroyed our dust shield and my nerves.
We had a lot of smoke in the air, so the views were limited and breathing a bit tough. The trail was in good shape and the tree/bush identification signs were cool. We even saw a really cool snake.
The top had a lot of fire watch structures and a nice viewing platform – which would have been great without the smoke.
2 hour round trip, 4.5 miles.
