Trip Report/Photos
Two of us did this hike. Much of the hike was along a ridge line. We had some nice rock formations early in the hike. This section of the trail had a full tree canopy.
It was a very muggy day as we challenged the rain gods all day. But the rain held off until our post hike beers.
