The Hawes (Rocky) trail loop starts in Las Siendas and takes you up the mountain pretty steeply at first until you crest just below the towers does it start to level up and head back around and then down the mountain. Down is really great. Up is challenging and peppered with rocks and crushed granite. Tight switchbacks and lots of sections suffering from erosion. Down is flows nicely with berms and drop offs from the erosion control as you get down lower. Connects into the rest of Hawes or you can keep right and take a further loop around the mountain.
Access Info
Trail starts at the corner of where Hawes Rd and Mountain Ridge connect. There is private property on both sides of the trail, so the actual trail head seems to be the best way to get there. Well Marked train sign.
