Saw this beautiful bear at 50 yds. He left the trail and we continued on down behind him, passing him as he stood about 50 ft. off the trail watching us. JGoodwin
Wonderful hike for all ages and physical conditions. You can spend hours hiking on very easy trails (old railroad grade) or some connecting trails which can give you a real workout. We hiked the area for eight hours, but even if you spend only an hour or two there, you can see a great deal of the history of the railroad, wildflowers, beautiful views and maybe even some wildlife. No problem with bugs yet either. There is more than one entry point so pick up a map at the Scenic Trailhead and Iron Goat Interpretive Site.
