This trail is maintained fairly well to the San Mateo Peak section, but starts to get more and more overgrown and less traveled. This is only the southern section to Blue Mountain summit. The peak itself isn't the best view on the trail, but there are many great peaks and saddles that over some spectacular views of the mountains and valleys
