Activity Notes
Sleeping Beauty in the Trout Lake area of the Gifford Pinchot is a short but steep hike with a rewarding view if weather permits.
2.8 miles RT with nearly 1,400 ft of elevation gain.
Based on mileage and elevation it falls in Mazama A level although this hike is a challenge due to the brevity plus steepness. Reviews are currently reporting some blowdowns to navigate.
According to AllTrails: Once you get to the top, you're on the rock summit which is not necessarily for the faint of heart or those afraid of heights/steep drop-offs, but the view is incredible and well worth it.
Carpool riders $20 Meeting @ MMC for a 7am departure.
