Nice, pleasant trail with great views and some early fall colors. Began at 1240. Went counterclockwise. The descent was slow due to all the loose rocks and the impressive views of Sedona as well as the San Francisco Peaks. It was warmer than expected, 85° and a lot of sun exposure during the first half of the trail. The bottom of the descent had more shade and a nice breeze. On the back half, we passed through several patches of fall colors (maple, aspen, and oak). The uphill portion passed by pretty quickly, although we stopped often to take in the scenery. Didn't see any other people on the trail. Very relaxing. Will visit again.
