Out and back, took 5 hours total. I didnt go up the tower due to no traction and 3 inches of ice/snow ok it. First mile took an hour then 1:50 to the top from there . Nice trail some places need a little more markings. Saw 4 people on my way down. The ground is gettin tricky with all the leave as well. The ice on thr rocks on the top were a surprise. Over nice hike for my 67th |
