Sightseeing
It is a long slow drive up a gravel mountain road to the trail head, but it is well worth the drive. Most of the hike in to Hawk's Bill is a descending hike. It is a great place to relax and enjoy the peace and serenity of the mountains. We love this hike and have only run into one other group when we were there.

This is another one of our favorites. There is an easy short hike around the top side of the cliffs with great vistas and unusual rock formations. The lower trail area is also really neat and fun to explore. This area has multiple trad climbing routes and a few sport climbs as well.

This is a neat area, and the natural bridge is an interesting rock formation.
