Due to summer weather will shorten the traditional loop to a 7.5 mile shuttle hike using only the Rip-Rap and Wildcat Ridge trails. Still a strenuous hike with about 2100 ft of elevation change. There is a great overlook, several stream crossings, and a swimming hole on so you may want to bring water shoes or come prepared to get wet. Dress for the weather and bring lunch-snacks, water, bug-sun and weather protection, And Extra Water if it's Hot. Hike limit is 10 and no dogs for this hike. Update will be emailed to participants.
