March 6, 2021The trail itself is great, the issue lies with people during the time of COVID. It gets crowded easily and cramp; then little to no one wearing masks in tight areas. We’ll try at a different time of day, but it’s not very pandemic friendly.

October 4, 2020October 2, 2020Great, long hike. I missed a turn on the red trail portion and ended up getting pretty far off course. Had to bail on the trail a little early. Fun time, lots of rocks.
