Other access, a short walk away

Walking distances follow the mapped trail network. They are not a route, they ignore slope, and they are not driving directions.

OpenStreetMap grades the footing here as: mostly marked; some steep or uneven ground. That describes the ground, not how hard the hike is.

From the low end of the trail to the high end.

Climb, time and difficulty are estimates worked out from the mapped line and USGS elevation data, not measurements or official ratings. Time assumes about 2.5 mph plus an hour per 1,500 ft climbed.
