This is where the trail starts/ends, but you have to hike a bit from the parking area to get here.

FYI - my GPS odometer recorded 10.6 miles roundtrip, but the track file only recorded 9.9 miles.

This is an awesome hike! I did it on an absolutely beautiful day and the views were incredibly scenic. I took a side trip to Lake Williams and decided to trace the source of the lake. To my delight, I found some beautiful waterfalls. This is a primo spot to camp overnight (I didn't). This is a MUST DO hike for the hardcore hiker/backpacker. It is shorter than the Bull Of The Woods Trail, but steeper.
