Description

Connection from parking area leads to/from the Torry Ridge Trail at the ridge line. Most will hike sections of the trail in either direction, though ridden downhill the trail can be mostly ridden. As a climb, it's mercifully short, but a strenuous warm-up to get to the ridge.

Some great views of the lake to the west in early spring & fall.
