We decided to check out this recently developed trail near Hope because it had quite a bit of buzz around it. Considering how new it was, the trail was extremely well developed with easy navigating and multiple enjoyable viewpoints. Definitely steep in some spots but the steep spots were interspersed with flat areas so the elevation gain was very manageable. Lots of points of interest along the way including waterfalls, views and large boulders (potential for some boulder problems maybe :)). Viewpoints from the top give you great views of Hope, Jorgensen Peak, Ogilvie Peak, Hope Mountain, Wells Peak, Mount Grant, Eaton Peak, Isolillock Peak, Silver Peak and more. A big thank you to all of the volunteers and everyone who worked on building and maintaining this trail, I'm sure it will get lots of use! One note about the access, as of April 11 the parking was on Silver Skagit Road; we tried driving up the side road to the parking lot but it was blocked at the top as they are still building/modifying the parking lot.
