| no partners | | I hiked this trail this morning to test out my new GPS. The HAZ Powers That Be are helping me with figuring out how to upload tracks, etc.
I started hiking at 5 a.m.
The Robinson Hollow Trail was built in 2000 to form a loop with the Flat Top Trail. Access is from the 12th Street Flat Top trailhead.
I worked with a group a full day in June 2000 as a trail volunteer to help build a few hundred feet of it. It took me half a bottle of ibuprofen to get through that day, and since then I have never once touched a Pulaski or a McLeod! However I have never forgotten which section I helped with! No more trail work for me, thank you. I couldn't stand up straight for a week.
The trail itself goes about 2.5 miles before it reaches a t-intersection. Go left, you'll hit the Flat Top Trail and can loop back to the car. Go right and you'll get to Murray Basin.
It was designed and laid out by a mountain biker (a USFS employee) for serious mountain bikers.
It is generally very dry and brown, until August. It's really pretty for about one month of the year. The rest of the time, it's handy for exercise, if you happen to live 5 minutes from it, which I do.
On older topo maps it is called Robertson Hollow, but the newer one (My Topo) shows it as Robinson Hollow. Who knows...? |
