6.6 miles of hiking • 1500' elevation gain •
Cool, cloudy with some cold wind made for an exhilarating day! There were a few groups of hikers, and some bicycle riders, but the highlight of the day was bumping into a WTA team that was building a new trail on the syncline. Evidently, the forest service has taken over management of the area and wants to make improvements. The new signage looks great, and somewhat out of place. We saw a nice, but not very colorful, sunset that was still exciting! The knee held up exceptionally well today despite the elevation gain and very rocky terrain. :)
