First time we tried one of the "blue gate" hikes along the highways. We always see them, and wonder what they are. This one started pretty cool - having to cross a stream and scramble up a boot trail, followed bu crazy bramble that tore our clothes and was painful. After that, we hit the main road, and would have had to take it for 2 miles to hit a decemt trail. We bailed and went elsewhere forna decent hike. Lots of animal skeletons and fur. Not recommended.
