Kelly Butte — Saturday, Jul. 8, 2017

Bring Water, this is a challenging trail, a short 1/3 of a mile walk from the parking area to the trail head and boom your spiderman legs are now in full use. The first half of the trail is basically a vertical switchback then levels off into a flowering meadow. Suntan lotion is a must, on a sunny day you will become a Vampyre and melt as easy an ice cube so lotion up and find shade when approaching the summit. the lookout offers views of the surrounding forest and beyond, descending the trail is a challenge prepare to ice those ankles when you get home. all negatives aside the trail is well maintained and there is a lot friendly things that are inviting have fun and tip your cap to fellow hikers its worth the work to get to the top.
