First time hikers and mild workout-ers beware, this is a challenging and strenuous hike for the unprepared! This hike is more for avid hikers and workout fanatics.
To the normal eye, this seems like you're average hike since it's sitting in the middle of a household community. To get here, you park next to houses on the street curb.
Two of my classmates and I went up the "Blue" route and traveled down the more vertical route. The blue route almost seemed like rock climbing! I was climbing on rocks and realized one slip could result in a painful fall! Going down was definitely far from easy -- it was like huge rocks and using all muscles in your arms and legs were necessary.
When you do finally accomplish though, it is very rewarding. We met people from Utah and other states that fly down here just to hike this mountain! They were nice enough to give us a ride back to our car since we traveled down another path.
Tip: Bring work out gloves, you get your hands dirty climbing rocks. Brings lots of water and a hat! And, bring your A game - this is no picnic!
