Granite Mountain

Little warmer than we thought so clouds and breeze were welcome!  Beautiful views!!!

Steady incline to the top. Lots of switchbacks to the top. Loved the 1st mile in/out for the shade!

Nice hike. First mile shaded. Watch for bees before 1 mile mark. Last 3/4m from saddle to peak is striking different from rest of hike.

2 years ago, my friend, Sandy, and I did this hike during the first week in June. We’d hoped to hike 3 summits in 1

It was hot and breezy. Full sun most of the hike, but grateful for some shade over the last mile, or so.

Hike was appropriately rated as moderate. Gradient gets steeper about half way, but its mainly the distance that changes it from easy to moderate. Trail
