This trailhead is already deep in the park, so if you plan to do this trail be sure to check if the trail is open before setting out. Great view from the overlook regardless, so the trek out is not without a pay off.

Great vantage point of the surrounding area and over to Elk Falls. Be careful here! It's a very steep drop off, fall factor is high if you get too close to the edge. Be safe and smart!
