Silly old Liam didn’t read the guidebook carefully enough to realize there was another trail to this mountain last time I was here. Could’ve easily done it at the time too. Today I came back to get it. Unfortunately, no views were to be had this evening. The summit was in cloud and it was raining lightly. The trail is a road with some interpretive signs/kiosks along the way. Very easy and family friendly. Gia called it 1-1.25mi with 160ft of gain, taking 20min. |
