Arrived at the trailhead at 7:30am. Only car in the lot. This is just a pullout off Yakima Canyon. Maybe parking for 5 cars total. No facilities but there are many on the way.
This is a Yakima canyon classic, steep, straight up the side of the canyon, with killer views.
I saw 2 bighorns, and quite a few deer on my climb up. No snow, the ground is frozen, but it's not icy. A few patches near the top but nothing that would require traction.
The views are stunning the whole way. I got a peek at Adams and Stuart from the top!
I took my time and arrived back at the TH at 10:30. One other car pulled in right around this time.
Fun climb, steep, good for training and for views!
