Description

Added by Jacob Lee

My personal favorite hiking spot. 2.5 miles of simple hiking paths in a dense forest to an amazing view

2.5 miles up a mountain to a vast and colorful scene. Family friendly trails, but steep stairs near the end may require assistance to younger ones. An open, free, and flexible trail fit for runners or steady hikers. A good site for bouldering as well.

Good photography potential but is best once you reach the top.
