The hike starts climbing immediately past large boulders on both sides of the trail.

Stairs help climb steeper portions of the trail on the ascent.

The trail as it climbs along the ridge line. It is narrow and exposed as it climbs the ridge.

View from the trail

When the trail turns to the right and back on itself, views of the surrounding valley spread out before you.

The view is spectacular from this vantage point.
