Description
Continue straight and another sign will lead you in the direction of Garnet Peak Trail. The remainder of the trail is a more moderate incline and fairly rocky. There are a few bigger rocks near the summit which may require some good footing and large steps over.
Once you reach the peak, you'll enjoy 360-degree views.
