Meet 9:30 am at the trail head. This is just off the Mountain Loop highway, a mile from the Sauk River.+
This can be a beautiful spring to early summer hike, assuming that enough of the snow has melted. The route partially follows the remains of a road, abandoned a hundred years ago, to the site of a long vanished hotel.
