text: This hike is TOUGH It is a windy steep trail with loose and jagged rocks I twisted my ankles a couple of times and am surprised I did not get a sprain When I made it to the very top the view was absolutely breathtaking Here are a few tips that I wish I had known before I wentnn If you can go in the middle of the day weekday or very early am for parking I arrived around on a Tuesday so had absolutely no troubles parking but when I got back to my car at the lots were completely fullnn Bring more water than you think you will need Next time I go I am bringing a Camelbaknn Wear really sturdy shoes with good grip Next time I go I will wear hiking shoes instead of my Nike running shoesnn Lots of benches and cool view points along the way to take a breather I may or may not have stopped to catch my breath several times on the way up nn Allow a solid hours maybe even longer for the full hike nn Bring a camera or camera phone for the top The view is really worth itnnEnjoy
