So I thought this would be a nice "trail" after what I'd just been through in the canyon looking for Wilson Mt. peak. And it was, for the first mile & a half. Then my route finding skills were put to the test again (but thankfully not my phone finding skills again! :) ) Wow, what a climb! This was intense, and I loved it! It's only 2.5 miles up and the first mile & a half is fairly flat. 1000 ft a mile basically after that. All loose scree & rock, no real "trail", at least that I saw.

Once at the top, there was a register box. Just in case you're not winded enough from that climb, someone was kind enough to leave some cigarettes in the box. Gee, thanks, just what I needed. :oplz:
