Started this hike with Preston in the morning. Our plan was to hike up the Finger Rock trail to the new Pontatoc connector trail which would take us back to the Pontatoc trail, formerly known as the Pontatoc Canyon trail.

The new trail was absolutely fantastic. There were no obstacles at all and the trail was all class 1. Once we got back to the old Pontatoc trail, we noticed a difference. The old trail is still in good condition but steeper and rockier than the new trail.

We saw a few groups of other hikers at Linda Vista saddle, which is a good place to take a break and admire the views. The elevation at Linda Vista saddle is 5,586 which is about 200 feet higher than the Pontatoc Ridge high point.
