lots of opportunity for off trail exploration here, There are the remains of an old homestead below the last push to the top. A spring fed water system is the visible remain, and depression where there could have been a cabin.
Mon, Mar 27, 2017 10:14 AMSteady steep incline most of the way up, bring good traction shoes and hiking poles if you like those. Fantastic views at the top, well worth the uphill battle. We met a few atv's and motorbikes on the lower slopes but once you are more than half way, its a bit steep for those guys. 5 stars, will do it again!
