Back at the Y, the left leg goes up to Stelzer Summit. This quickly gets steep, so wear lug soles and take water. The trail heads up through large boulders to the peak and more broad vistas. About one hour round-trip. Stelzer is especially oriented toward young people.
Many youth groups take kids out for picnics, hikes and general fun.
This offers a fun weekend for parents and kids, with storytelling, night hikes, marshmallow-roasting and morning flapjacks. You must reserve with a call to 561-0580.
