Yesterday we decided to hike the trail and did the Whittaker peak, the Gombu trail and the Shy bear trail. The conditions and the weather were great and we ended up hiking around 8 miles.

First hike of the season. If you're out of shape like I was, I would recommend starting with a hike less steep. But the hike was amazing and I'm glad I did it. There really wasn't anything spectacular about it as the views were not that great and there really was nothing to see at the top but still a fun little day hike. My two small dogs made it up the hike with no problems, btw.

Reached the Bear Ridge parking lot at 10am. No other cars, which was just as well, as there's only space for three cars... Headed up to Anti-Aircraft Peak, then over to Wilderness Peak, and closed the loop by crossing over to Squak Mountain (see tracklog). Apart from a few muddy spots, the trails were in good condition. Only the very last trail I used to close the loop wasn't well marked, had several blowdowns, and a stream crossing on a log. Plenty of people out running and walking their dogs, but no crowds.
