If you are looking for an alternative route to Mount Si, consider making the ascent on the Mount Teneriffe Trail and then the connector over to Mount Si at 4.1 miles in. We did that, then took the Mount Si trail down to the Talus Loop trail, which connects to the Mount Teneriffe Trail, making a lollipop loop. It is a longer route, but it offers more variety.
The colorful highlight was a cluster of vine maples right by the bench at the overlook, which had turned a strong shade of red.
