High Point

Perfect route after a long week and needing to blow off some steam - ample short climb kickers, a few longer ones and many rocky ravine crossings to keep you on your toes. Mainly a clockwise loop around Alpine and Rockleigh with a short section in reverse of what you did to avoid the flat terrain through the camp area when heading back.

Starting location is Ruckman Rd off 9W - limited parking for 4 or 5 vehicles.

FYI - If using the Trailforks app or a GPS device, you can start anywhere and follow the route tracks.

Enjoy and be safe
