TRAIL WALK-THRU:  We will start off on a flat trail for the first 1/2 mile.  Then we will go on a steep incline for about 1/8 of a mile.  Our goal is to touch the water tower at the top!  We then will go down an easy trail which leads us out the rest of the way back to the flat trail which brought us in.

RECOMMENDED: Bring water (2 liters), Sun Screen, sweats/windbreakers (plenty of pokey dry brush) .

NOTE:  This is a real work out, you will sweat.  This is not a shady hike, it’s sunshine happy. However, the view from the top will be worth the hike.
