Description
This hike begins through the gate about 100 feet down from Three Hawks Trail and Thunderbird Trail. After hiking through the gate, take a hard right turn across a small wooden bridge and begin your trek up to the flag. The trail is slightly overgrown at parts and you are guaranteed to see plenty of lizards since this trail is not used quite as much as the others. Especially the backside going down to Crafton Hills Ridge Trail. There is a lot of variation which is nice on the legs until you make your way down to Crafton Hills Ridge Trail. Then you have an easy downhill cruise until you get to Three Hawks Trail where you can fly down to the main road.
