    Great 6.5mi hike which is pretty close to home. Trail is fairly well marked. I will be back to trail run it.
  • By Anthony Jospeh Bucherati Buch
    Awesome place to go hiking. It’s about 6 miles and takes about 3.5 hours to complete. Be aware of the blue paint marks on the trees. They’re a little faded.
