notes |
This
invigorating loop climbs along forested ridges to the crest
of Chucksney Mountain, where it ambles more than a mile through
delightful summit meadows with views of the Three Sisters. On
the way down, the path visits a hidden glen - the headwaters
of Box Canyon Creek. Open late June through October. |
