My goal is do a reasonably good conditioner without driving too far. This is a nice forest and interesting hike. After Debbie’s View we will take the Bullitt Gorge trail to the fireplace, then on to Central Peak. We will return via West Peak. There are steep and rocky sections along this route. Good boots and trekking poles are advised. Bring a lunch.
The giant pothole was fixed on Wednesday. We should be able to park in the parking lot. I will check back and provide an alternative if not. The forecast for Tuesday as of today is for partly sunny. I will continue to watch for change.
