Crouching Lion Trail

10/02/16

I seriously underestimated this hike...but overall it was an awesome experience. The directions lead you to some residential street with the trailhead being between two properties. Instead we started at a trailhead that was about half a mile down the road. There is parking in the right side and the trailhead is on the opposite side. Walk towards the direction you came from and enter through he second caution sign. Once you go through the steep jungle you'll be greeted with the "knife-like ridges". They weren't kidding. It was pretty intense seeing such a steep drop in both sides. I would highly recommend experienced climbers attempt the trail because strong winds can make this hike extremely dangerous. However the view that the top is pretty freakin awesome.
