I-90 East to exit 32, turn right and drive up to the trail. Plenty of parking.
I saw on the web page here, some fellow died here last week. We walked up the trail with this on our minds.

The trail up is well maintained all the way up. It is a great little hike and compares to Little Si in many ways. Well the trail is a lot smoother. This would be a better choice if you didn't like a lot of leg lifting. Speaking about leg lifting there was a lot of puppies on the trail today.

Anyway we walked up at a good clip all the way to the top. It took us 38 minutes to reach the ledge. The clouds cleared up a wee bit so we could see Rattlesnake Lake down below. I built a Dolmen in honor of Ruben. I didn't know him but this is my Celtic blessing to give him good passage into the next life and for comfort to all his family and friends left here.

The hike back down took us 37 minutes. A lot of people were coming up as we were descending.
