[edit] Finding the Trail Head
Take Hwy 93 north, west on Golden Gate Canyon Rd., and left into the parking lot. Alternatively, take Hwy 93 north, west on Iowa St. Noodle through the neighborhood staying as close to Mount Galbraith as possible. Access is near the concrete flood control channel.
[edit] Description
Typical front range hike. Starts in the chaparral and gets just into the pines.
[edit] Experience
Surprisingly pretty for such a near hike.
