Very nice weather! Quick hike that wasn't too bad, trail is maintained very nicely. The steepest part of the uphill is near the end. 

 

Very nice view at the top, trail is maintained well. Difficulty pretty consistent throughout, the ledge looks intimidating from the bottom but it actually isn't that bad. 

 

The trek was very pleasant. The trail is well maintained - thought it is not marked, but there is only one route. The weather on that day was slightly drizzling and more than that quite cold for this season. There were lot of people. Enjoyable.

First hike I’ve done in over 6 years. Easy parking right next to trailhead right off of main road. The first half mile is definitely the biggest challenge of the hike. The elevation gain combined with rock steps makes you feel like going half a mile up stairs. Once the trail opens up to be mostly dirt by that point the worst is over for the remaining mile or so up to the lookout. Path is well maintained and is a great 3-4 hour hike for people looking to get into hiking.

We hiked the Chirico Trail to Poo Poo Point Saturday morning. We pulled into a full parking lot a little before 9 AM, someone was leaving so we snagged a parking spot pretty quickly. We almost took 2 cars to trailhead and glad we didn't! My friends and I met up at Eastgate Park and Ride, which is only 15 min away, and opted to carpool to trailhead.

I have done this trail several times, and it's always in good condition. It was a rainy and moody morning but the trail was just as busy as usual. We got to the top and there was a little bit of view before the clouds moved in.
