Completed my 2nd Hike of the 6 peak Challenge.

Hot Springs Mountain was easy to get to. Make sure you pay the $10 parking fee at the main entrance. The trail starts at the Sukat Road from the main parking lot. Look for the chained fenced and work your way all the way up.

Various snow spots throughout from the bottom to the Summit.

The first 2 miles were a dousy but then it levels out to a gradual incline. My BPM was at 185 high during the first 2 miles. I took my time but I can imagine how bad this hike would have been in done in the summer months. yikes.

All in all I was able to summit and back within 4 hours and 30 min. 9.8miles hiked and 23k Steps.
