This is a fantastic with some exceptional Mountain View’s. The limited available parking is by far the biggest drawback of this hike. We had to park roughly 1-1/8 miles up the road, thus adding significant distance to the hike.

Really enjoyed this hike! It was a tough one, though, as it is mainly all uphill until you reach the bluffs. Then the walk back is mainly all downhill.
