Holy vertical elevation! While this one had switchbacks, everything was pretty much straight up! Pretty intense climb for te first half and then the excitement kicked in! I am not a fan of heights and for the most part have done OK on the previous two-this one had some pretty narrow passages with the trail too close to the edge for me-I opted for the actual mountain on those stretches. The Summit was a spectacular view-but I didn't spend a whole lot of time up there! This was #3 out of 6 for us and so far my least favorite, but you know, different strokes…..
