January 1, 2021December 23, 2020It's a fire road trail, which was very convenient for keeping distance while hiking with friends. It's an easy hike past the lake and you can turn around at any point. On the way back we decided to loop around on the other side of the lake. After you cross the wooden bridge, it's a single file trail with some poison oak, so you need to be careful, but it was worth it for a change of scenery.

December 16, 2020too much fire trail for my taste

October 19, 2020September 25, 2020September 24, 2020I am not much of a mountain biker, or a road biker for that matter, which made this fire trail pretty ideal. Mostly flat with a few slopes here and there. Admittedly, I did turn around before the major elevation happened.
September 23, 2020September 20, 2020Nice easy loop with great views. A few too many cyclists though.
September 19, 2020September 6, 2020September 2, 2020August 14, 2020We like this hike as a training; there’s a long slope that can be a bit steep in some part, and a beautiful view at the top. Very few people during the week except in parts close to the parking lot.
June 24, 2020A nice relatively flat connection trail between Tilden and Wildcat Canyon! Nice to get in some easy miles here.
