Woah! Finally made it all the way up the Holt trail! It's steep! And there are a couple scrambles that are not for the faint of heart. We joked that it started off like the ledges on Welch-Dickey, turned into parts of Huntington Ravine, then ended up like a rock wall climbing gym (minus ropes)! It was fun! Amazing 360 views from the summit and for most of the walk over Mowglis and Manning - tons of ledges to soak up the scenery. Nice 5.2 mile loop! |
