I’m giving this trip 5 stars because I finished it. Lol
We did this in less than 3 hours at the END of our work days. It was definitely a tough one, but the view was incredible. First mile is easy compared to the middle two. Definitely bring poles, it is STEEP with loose dirt in many spots (would have died without them). Long light pants are probably a good idea with the amount of poison oak on the trail. All in all a good short/tough hike. If we started earlier, definitely would have felt motivated to climb all peaks. The view from the top is incredible. Don’t forget to grab a beer and burger at Ed’s Mudville Grill after, you’ve earned it.

Wonderful hike this time of year. Great views while climbing up to Eagle Peak. One of the best trails to see Coulter Pines and contrast with Grey Pines. Saw numerous wildflowers including many Mount Diablo Globe Lilies on Back Creek Trail

Lots of quail, turkeys, waterfalls, and a clearly marked trail. Decent shade but very hot in summer.
