Finally got to hike Franco's home mt and was not disappointed! A good almost 4 mile loops with some climbing and rocky footing on Tower Trail..Balancing Rock is a mini Glen Boulder though not above treeline..Ridge Trail has good footing and was a pleasure to hike down..think I would like to camp here and hike the area mountains in the future!! |
