Comments
Comments: From the summit, the trail (which I assume is still the Spencer Smith Trail), blazed in red and orange, continues a meandering course over the south ledges for .7 mile, with not much by way of views. Hang in there, for it finally ends on clifftop ledges with a panoramic view over Bow Lake to Saddleback Mtn. and other southern hills.
