Mountain View

Trail Thoughts and Musings

Because the trail starts slightly less than two miles from the crest of the Santa Cruz mountains, spectacular views can be had with comparatively little effort on the part of the hiker. This is aided by the grassy slopes which provide little to obstruct the vistas. Even when a small grove of trees intervene they act to accentuate and frame the view, rather than to impede it.
