This hike was 4.5 miles long and an elevation change of 325 feet. Earlier that week a 61 year old male died on this same hike. There were lots of people hiking in this area but not many seemed very prepared. Quite a few people were asking if this was the way to Pushawalla...

| Lots of lose rock that required some care to navigate. |

| The trail disappears behind the palms behind us. |

| Narrow trail on top of a ridge on the return to the vehicles. A long way down if you stumble... |
