"When I first went out, I though the weather was crazy. Some of the winds shook our car." - Xander
"I'm happy we made it to the top, it was a very short hike. If you don't want a long hike, don't go there, but if you want a nice place for lunch or a good place for pictures, do. I'm proud we made it because of the storm." - Venice
WHAT:
Approximately 1.5 miles.
Summit over 4,000 ft.
Round trip less than on hour.

"It's a good place to play DnD because it's a forest with lots of natural habitats in it. I liked muddy log skipping!" - Venice
"I liked leaning back into the wind." - Xander
"Despite the crazy wind and rain, the kids had fun on the hike. They jumped puddles, climbed trees and discovered a really large worm. We were thankful for the warmth and dryness our car provided as well as the beautiful rainbow in store for us." - Diana
