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.
Panoramic view. On the right you are looking south, down valley towards Durango. The road cut you see is the road leading up to Coalbank.

Cairn at the summit

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
Wildflowers in early August
