Description
Trail has a relatively flat start up to the mountain. Mild switchbacks going up are flat, however they do get steep going up and the trail can get rocky in places. Coming down is a lot easier but there is less traction on the rocky portions of the trail. If you go during a snow or just after it has melted, you'll be met with snow towards the top near the summit, and potentially muddy sections.
