Photo: The round trip offers five different scenic views, all situated at least 1400 feet above sea level. Parking lots evenly spaced along the trail are great emergency extraction points, but note that cell phone service within the park is limited and hikers should plan on being self-sufficient, with pick-up times planned well in advance.
