Looking down the Red Hill Trail
Route: Red Hill Trail
With not much time, I opted to take a quick jog up Red Hill. The trail was a bit dusty and rocky due to an extended period of minimal rain.
Reaching the summit, there were strong views in all directions - a welcome change from the hazy, smokey views in recent hikes.
Nonetheless, the deer flies did their best on the descent to make things a bit vexing.
