Three dads and their sons from my grandchildren's Home School group accompanied me and led the way. Our goal was to reach a viewpoint at the rim and then return. I got within about 0.2 miles of the rim when I encountered the rest of the pack coming back down so turned around to join them on the way down and never quite reached the top. It was a good excuse, I had run out of energy at that point.
The trail is easy to follow with a good tread but gets steep for the last mile. The beautiful old forest along the trail was a highlight for me. Views from the rim and connecting up with the rim trail at the end of this trail is probably the major attraction but I never quite made it there. The Two Sixty TH is a very short distance off of HW260 with room for a number of cars to park, signs for the Highline and Military SH trails are at the TH as well as an outhouse which appeared to be fairly well maintained. |
