Hiking
Rae Wallace Trail is a 2.5-mile (4 km) out-and-back hike that climbs approximately 895 ft through alpine tundra and rocky terrain, offering beautiful mountain views and seasonal wildflowers. Park at the seasonal lot, as the roads do close in winter. Also, watch for a lower section that can be muddy or icy early in the season. The optimal time to hike is between June and August.
