 | Comments: |
The Fire Warden's trail is basically snow free except for a small patch just below the summit.
The Eagle Cliff trail has a lot of snow from the summit down to 1500' By 1400' the snow is gone and the cliffs are dry.
The loop is a nice one, but the road walk back to the car is a long one. Some might prefer to do an out and back on Red Hill and an out and back to Eagle Cliff.
Because of the snow, if you are doing the loop I would recommend coming down the Eagle Cliff trail rather than going up that way. The snow is knee deep in places. |
