This is the type of scrambling you'll be doing on the way up and more importantly on the way down. The flat spot with a few folks hanging out is the Eagle's Nest, a great spot for those who want a break or a turnaround point before the scrambling.

Nothing short of spectacular!
High Country wildflowers are amazing
After leaving the forest you enter a meadow and depending on the time of year you may see a field of Paintbrush with Engineer dominating the view above.
