Sag Valley Hike from Horsetail Lake - 4, 6 or 8+ miles

We'll start at Horsetail Lake and then head east on the Yellow trail toward (but not down) the stairs. At that point there are many options which I'll offer if there are others willing to help lead. I'll probably go halfway around on the yellow and back up the stairs, about 6 miles or so. Other options include cutting back on the purple trail (shorter) or doing the whole yellow loop (8+). A great scenic hike with a couple manageable hills, always a crowd pleaser.
