Elevation profile is definitely wrong. The trail climbs from Hang Your Hat up to a short ridge with views of the inlet then drops back down to Hang Your Hat.

Offers a nice view and a short punchy climb and then a little descent afterwards.
jerschwab
Elevation profile seems totally wrong on this trail.. actually reverse of what it is.
