Trail is being improved or restored by Troop 452 scouts. We have cleared just around 2 miles of trail. The view is great from the top. Grade on Top is 1 or 2 but you do have to cross the 3rd bridge which is narrow. Highest cliff around 200 ft drop to water. Water fall of 9-10 ft at the furthest cleared point.
