DATE: 15 June, 2010
TOTAL TIME: 1.5 hrs
DIFFICULTY: Easy
PARTICIPANTS: "Sunburn" Samantha and Me
REHIKE VALUE: 0
Well, not much to talk about here. Simple hike and somewhat good view at the top. Probably be better suited for a run, or a hike with a picnic up top. You could very well get better views from just about anywhere else.

Gorgeous walk up the gradual incline |

This one was short, but extremely annoying because of the millions of the tree roots I hate so much and thousands of well-placed rocks. Plus, I was tired and cranky. At the midway point, there is a trail that serves as a shortcut to Mt. Olympus. I recommend not using it because a shortcut on a map is in reality a really really steep climb that would take longer to hike than the usual route.
Apparently, there are bugs on this trail ... or so Samantha says. I was fine. It must be the whole city girl thing. That's funny because I'm from Los Angeles...

Trees around the world dumped their damned surplus of roots here |
