Description of Hike & Trail: The trail

was easy to moderate with a slow and gradual incline. After about 2.5 miles and when you got to 4 corners it was somewhat overgrown and long pants is suggested. As you continue and get to the Sitton Peak Trail (last 0.5 miles) it is very overgrown and long sleeves and pants is needed. As you all heard the last 0.5 miles is no joke and pretty much a steep straight up climb to the top. Make sure you store your energy so you can reach the top. As far as the condition of the trail it was pretty good for the most part with the only negatives being spotting a snake, some standing water and 1000s of bugs that do not go away. Overall a good long hike but make sure to bring a face net or bug spray.

Amount of Time: 2 hours and 36 minutes

It’s all on your own fitness so I would recommend 2 to 4 hours to complete the hike.
