7 miles of hiking • 1250' elevation gain •
I don't remember where I heard about this trail (the one up past Ripplebrook) , but, somewhere along the line I did and decided to visit after a casual trip to Poop Creek. Nice trail, flowers, some orchids, nice river views from above. After a little post-hike research I discovered this is mostly used as a mountain bike trail, which explains why I was unable to find info on the trail on any hiking site/ in a book. Was passed by 1 biker on the hike, luckily not on a cliffside area. The noise of the bike from behind me caught me off guard and I thought it was an animal, the bikers response "I am and animal".....
