This trail is short and steep! However, most parts of the trail are clearly defined and the steepest parts go quickly. Be careful of loose and slippery rocks this time of year. The small and gradual part after the false summit is more grown over. We completed this trail in an hour and a half, so it is a perfect hike for when you don’t have the whole day to hike. We finished the hike around 7:30 pm and the bugs by the river were starting to become annoying, but before that they weren’t a problem.
IMPORTANT: on the road driving in (that you have to drive on for all of the trails in this area), there is a dip that is pretty substantial. The sign for that dip is halfway fallen over on the way in and so it is easy to miss. Be wary so that you don’t damage your car!
