Comments
Comments: Nice, moderate hike with great views at the top. Wide trail and a red pipe gate at the trailhead. The first couple of miles are a gradual ascent on a wide path. Probably gravel, but snow covered still. There are a few offshoots left and right, but stay straight until you actually see a sign and trail to the left. From that point it's a nice hike up woods and ledges to the top. Views are wonderful in all directions. Not a 360, but little loop at the top with view after view. Big cairn at the actual top. Trail is getting slushy. Bare in spots, but still snow in others. Microspikes needed today to ascend some icy/snowy spots, but probably not for long.
