Fascinating geology at higher elevation. One could spend hours looking at the boulders. Very muddy at lower elevations.
rockier than expected, Def need some ankle protection, some big boulders to take pics on. trails marked decent, even with the leaves on ground
Parking lot is spacious. Everyone parks a little weird, but you can eventually find a spot even at 10am. Trails are well marked and clear. Clean and easy hike. Bring the kids and elderly here.
we enjoy the trail. the kids liked climbing the devil's boulders
challenging with the uphill at first, but a nice trail. lots of different trails to choose from.
Interesting trail with varied terrain. We enjoyed this hike very much!
