    This trail, named after a local settler named Charles Sterling, is a steep climb from the get-go. It offers views of diverse red rock geology and winds through a conifer forest with ponderosa pines and dwarf canyon maples. Overlooks are plentiful and you will be wanting to take ample breaks as you enjoy them.
