Loss blazes a few times going up the headway…. A few more wouldn’t hurt
Huntington ravine trail is definitely a strenuous trail. I used a lot of upper body strength going up the headway. Legs were a little wobbly when I made it to the top but got better on the Nelson crag trail. So many people at the top…. I’ve never seen that many people. Long lines for summit sign, food, bathroom, no where to sit…. Took lion head down, not many people. Regardless…. Great day with pretty good views. There was some haziness but no wind. Think twice if your considering hiking up Huntington, once your committed…. Well let’s say, I wouldn’t want to go down that way. |
