    Tips

    July 21, 2023

    Hogsback is an easily recognizable peak from town. There is a distinctive ridge traveling up to the summit, and the trail itself is as steep as they come. It's easy to get "spooked" when it's time to head downhill because of how steep the slopes are off the sides of the trail. The lookout from the top is worth the efforts to get up and down, though.
