Easy to moderate hike. The forest is simply lovely on the way up to Tremper. Classic Northern Hardwoods. Lots of songbirds. Not much water along the trail but it’s short so it’s not a big deal. Fire tower closed due to pandemic, views were very limited along the trail. A great beginner hike, especially for forest lovers.
