October 17, 2020Wasn’t expecting it, but right from the trail head the trail is covered in snow, and is snow covered the rest of the way. Shortly after you start, when you get to the lamp post, the trail heads right, so always keep the lamp on your left, if not, you’ve gone too far from the trail. The trail then heads up the little valley following the stream. All the way up until the saddle, the snow is compact and easy to tread on. Gorgeous views from the saddle into the South Fork valley area. Then you can either go left up Mt. Gordon Lyon, or right up South Fork Overlook. Mt. Gordon Lyon seemed to be the easier of the two, with a compact trail. We decided to go right and try South Fork Overlook - snow was NOT compact and very slippery, so we turned back. Logged 3.5 miles in 2 hours
September 27, 2020It is a nice loop. The right side is the steeper side so we went up that way and it is muddy in some places. A beautiful view once you get to the top!
September 25, 2020September 20, 2020Steep all the way up but gorgeous views
September 19, 2020September 18, 2020Nice steady incline to the peak. Views are great
September 13, 2020Great trail for a beautiful fall day! A climb at the peak, but the views were amazing! No bugs! A little bit of loose rock to manage on the climb down.
September 13, 2020Great hike with easy trail leading to the top. Gorgeous views
September 12, 2020September 6, 2020Great hike up, trails clear, blueberry picking going on all around. Parking fee $5/day, $25/year. Gates close at 10pm.
September 5, 2020Great trail, a little steeper than Mt Gordon Lyons, but still pretty doable. Gorgeous views from the top, took the loop around the backside and followed the ski lifts on the way down. A few muddy spots, not too bad.
August 29, 2020steep up and steep down. but what views!
August 21, 2020August 13, 2020August 2, 2020Good day. Overcast, but despite the forecast for rain, it was dry and cool. Trail is dry as well.
August 2, 2020Always a favorite for us, rain or shine.
August 1, 2020July 30, 2020Very pretty hike but the elevation can make it more difficult if you are not used to it. We went up about 1.5 miles to the top of the first mountain and walked back down the same way. I would have really struggled making it to the top of the loop but the view was very much worth it.
July 27, 2020Terribly bumpy drive up, but once you’re there the views are amazing! Great experience overall! Nice and easy to the top!
July 26, 2020Worst road to a trail ever! Very hard on vehicles but gorgeous views
July 22, 2020Awesome hike! Saw some cool clouds and could see a bunch of other trails that we wanted to do from our summit. What a good time, a little treat at the top!
