This was another AllTrails discovery near our house that I had no idea existed. The odd-day trail hike is mostly exposed for the first couple of miles, but the Grubsteak park of it is quite nice. However, I didn’t realize that this park switched between bikes and hikers on odd and even days, and I came on the wrong day so there were a ton of bikes riding up.
Bonanza Trail looks like it is closed at the bottom before you get to the woods, but it turns out that this is an optical illusion. The trail makes a sharp turn directly in front of the Trail Closed sign and is hidden behind another sign.
It turns out that Pam designed the parking area and trailhead.
Here are the stats:
- Distance = 5.96 mi
- Elevation Gain = 1,122 ft
- Time = 2:10:28
- Avg Speed = 2.9 mph
- Min elevation = 6,041 ft
