This
is a "rugged" 1.7-mile trail that offers some unusual
hiking opportunities. Following the cliffs along Sugar Creek, Trail
3 passes by the Ice Box. It then turns north and follows between
the steep walls of Bear Hollow before returning to the ridgetop
by a series of ladders. Be very careful!The trail later takes you
to the Punch Bowl (an interesting glacial feature). Trail 3 then
connects with Trail 4 and follows between the steep walls of Rocky
Hollow, along a creek, on the way back to the Suspension Bridge.
These are the "landmarks" that we try to hit during the
hike.
TRAIL
9 ::
This
is a "rugged" 1-mile trail that is the most likely of
all the trails to get the group in trouble. This is where we tend
to break off the mean trail to explore and often get lost in the
depths of nature. Consequently, this becomes the main stretch of
the hike. Often times, some of us grow quite frustrated knowing
that we're lost at a time when we grow increasingly desperate for
our first helpings of cevapcici and cold beer. Many of the photos
below depict what you might experience during this portion of the
hike!
