4 months agoAbsolutely lovely trail! Good bit of parking, very well kept, lots of great views and a wonderful time. Met some buddies here and hiked for a few hours and it was gorgeous. It’s one of my favorite trails I’ve been on and I will definitely will be going back!

9 months agoHuge parking area on the right side of the road, with glorified outhouse. Main trailhead is across the road, great signage throughout the park trails. I love the 1/4 mile posts!

3 years agoThe hiking trails are hard but just for walk, not much to see up the top. We went up to the top to see an eagles overlook but were totally disappointed when we reached there. The trail is very hard and when you reach there, you wont even realize you walked all that path to see a big stone. I climes that stone too, but nothing to look around. Covered everything by the trees. If you are only for walk and want to enjoy the trail, it might be good, but for us, it was a waste of time.
