At the junction with Aerie trail, we followed the Aerie trail to the Cockscomb trail and then to the top of Cockscomb. Some route finding was necessary, as well as hand and feet rock climbing, but well worth the view from the top. We hiked back down the Cockscomb and followed a trail past the Aerie development and up the south side of Doe Mountain. There are some cairns in place to aid in the climb. Once at the top of Doe Mountain we ate lunch then descended on the north side trail back to the Bear Mountain parking area. This last section of trail to the parking lot is used by many hikers - so a very busy highway. |
