The Brother

The trail is well-marked, and it's difficult to get truly lost in the park. You'll start out on the Sister's Trail, which is a great warm-up. You'll be fairly well shaded by ponderosa pines. Take time to take in your surroundings. Before long, take a left on the Ponderosa Trail. From there, you'll notice that the grade becomes more moderate, and your heart rate will increase. There's still a lot of great things to see between switchbacks! After another short ways, you'll the break off right on the Brothers Trail. It's not much farther to the rock formation, and that's all there is too it! Once you've enjoyed taking in the views from the top, you can head back the way that you came, or explore other trails in the area.
