Third time up here in one month and every time there's something new to enjoy. So many beautiful wildflowers and different views. Chances are good you'll have the entire trail to yourself. It could use a few more caches along the way. Thanks for a great hike!

Spectacular view of so many places I've hiked and a nice trail to get there. I couldn't leave the FTF on the table any longer and I'm surprised it went this long waiting for someone. I dropped a couple extra TBs for the next cacher. TFTC
