Wheelbarrow Mine

This out-and-back trail starts near Prospect Peak and takes you through timber and brush on several different surfaces on what is almost a total climb up to the top of Gold Hill. The trail begins in fairly smooth dirt with a nice banked S-turn on the first climb before shortly leveling out for a ways. The first 2 miles or so is pretty easy before the difficulty steps up a little. After the intersection with Trail 763, you start to hit some pretty steep climbs that will get very rocky in places. There are short sections of smoother gravel to give you some time to breathe between the rougher sections. The final climb is another steep and rocky one that will take you to the summit of Gold Hill.
