5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

If hiking in winter, keep in mind the wayfinders are white dots painted on the rock surface. We made it quite a game with our 6 year old to find the white dots! Beautiful hike until the last stretch which is pretty much open road.

Wear sunscreen...higher elevation means you sunburn easier even when it is overcast.

Follow the dots! It's 5 miles and it's not the easiest, but doable hike. Wish we had more time to kayak.
