Trip Report

Moonrise was at 7:57 pm, seventeen minutes after we left the main trailhead. Once on top the moon was above the foothills and the 8:58 pm sunset was just beginning to color the sky. On the way down we could look upward and have spectacular views of the moon rising above the trees. It seemed to follow us back to our cars.
