3 miles of hiking • 500' elevation gain •
Finally had to leave our little cabin in the woods and head for civilization, but a stop at Painted Hills was our treat for the day. We did all the trails and the Rim Trail is the BEST climbing up and above everything with a view to every section of the park. More amazing geology and history, and another Natl Park in our book. If you collect Natl Park cancellations the Only Painted Hills stamp is at the Blue Basin paleontology center.
