This was spectacular! The expansive views from the high ridge were beautiful and slightly exhilarating if you have any (even irrational) discomfort with heights. The wildflowers were profuse and vibrant and a constant source of delight.

This is a must do. North to South. Have plan to bailout to the east if you encounter lightning.
