Great hike, about a Mile and a half each way. Trail was well marked, some steep parts. Totally worth it when you get to seethe view.
Would definitely do again, noce view at the end

This might have been a nice hike if it hadn’t have been for the large gather/daughter group of loud and obnoxious hikers on 3/4/18. They took up the entire trail, causing everyone else to have to move out of their way, were screaming the entire way, blocking trail signs and not letting people through. Every other hiker we passed were also commenting on their disruptive behavior. And when we reached the top, we couldn’t even sit to enjoy the view as they had spread out over most of the rock face at the top, children were running around and screaming and swinging sticks, and the parents were paying no mind to them. We waited for a half hour, to hopefully let them have their time and disperse, as older couples, and even teenagers left because of the noise and annoyance. But they simply stayed and took over the whole area. Pretty awful human beings ruining this probably otherwise lovely area. I would not recommend this hike for this reason.
Love to hike the trails here. They are well-maintained with beautiful scenery. Don’t miss the goats at the Carl Sandburg Farm. They are precious.
