One of the finest ridge walks in K Country was first brought to everyone’s attention by Alf Skrastins in the Foothills Wilderness Journal. This is a challenging trail due to distance. The elevation gain is gradual so manageable. The trail makes for a long day so we will be starting at 7 am. We will hike the trail counter clockwise so we can take in the magnificent views while we are still in good spirits!
