This hike has it all and at 10 miles round-trip, is not difficult depending on the conditions. I hiked it the last weekend of October in tennis shoes and shorts (albeit with leggings) and was dressed adequately for about 2/3 of the hike. The last 1.5 miles on the way to the fire tower was through sn...
