点评:My wife and I hiked this trail on September 15, 2026. We arrived around 8 am and still easily located parking, but it was mid-week. There were already about 20 cars at the Mescal trailhead; some groups were already returning, meaning they set out around 6am. The trail is soft and less rocky than many, for the first mile. The trail starts to climb and becomes rocky but still easy/moderate. There are 2 sections at the top which are more challenging and most hikers take these slowly. Going up is easier than coming down. The sections are short. Here are a very pictures of the bridge. There was no line today. The hike is about 4.5 miles (round trip) and takes ~2.5 hours depending on the hiker and time spent at the top. This is the busiest trail we have been on, lots of people coming and going, all were happy.
翻译:2026年9月15日,我和妻子徒步走了这条路线。我们早上8点左右到达,虽然当天是工作日,但仍轻松找到了停车位。当时在Mescal步道起点处已经有大约20辆车;有些团队已经返程了,说明他们大约在早上6点就出发了。最初的1英里路段路面较为松软,石头也较少。随后山路开始上坡,石头逐渐增多,不过整体难度仍属于容易至中等水平。山顶有两段较为陡峭的路段,大多数徒步者都会放慢步伐来通过。上行比下行容易。各段路程都不长。这里有几张桥的照片。今天没有排队现象。整个徒步行程约为4.5英里(往返),所需时间则视徒步者个人情况以及在山顶停留的时间而定,大概需要2.5小时左右。这是我们走过的最热闹的步道,来来往往的人很多,大家都很开心。
