Description

A gentle uphill route that takes trail users through coniferous woodlands, across brown hills, and ends at a pleasant shaded, rocky outcropping atop Drinking Horse Mountain. The southern part of the lollipop/lariat loop is the easier ascent of the mountain while the northern fork is the more difficult.
