I hike this area often. But I don't go to the peak very much anymore. I think thanks to social media it has become insanely busy. Everyone wants to get that Instagram shot on the potato chip. Most don't even go on to make it to the actual summit of Mt. Woodson. When we do hike this peak we never ever go on a Saturday. And we always pick a cool day because it can get pretty dang hot here. So we start before 7:00am. And if we do the peak we like to start at Blue Sky go over the top of Woodson and then down and around taking the Fry Krogel trail back. Fry and Krogel are the names of two guys that have down ALL of the trail improvements to Mt Woodson. It's amazing how much work they've done over the years.  If you see them stop and Express your appreciation but don't be surprised if they try to recruit you to the trail crew.  We were sad to see a year or so ago the one and only shade tree fall where we would usually stop and enjoy a snack. Always sad when we lose a tree.
